A Sikil interlude at Dor: an analysis of contrasting opinionsVermeulen, Floris Nicholas 30 November 2006 (has links)
This paper analyses the opposing views regarding the presence or absence of the Sikil at Dor in Palestine during Early Iron Age 1. Textual sources claim that the Sikil were pirates who came from the west and settled in Cyprus. Egyptian sources point to a Sikil presence at Dor.
Some scholars regard the Egyptian sources and archaeological finds at Dor as evidence of a Sikil settlement at Dor. Others maintain that there is a continuity of ceramics at Dor from Canaanite to Phoenician. Though there were foreign influences at Dor during Early Iron Age 1 which point to newcomers, they propose that these newcomers probably came from Cyprus. No archaeological record of a Sea People-presence at Dor has been discovered.
This study textually traces the Sikil from the Aegean to Cyprus, Egypt and finally to Dor and a theory is presented that the Sikil originated in the Aegean, temporarily settled in Cyprus and finally at Dor. / Old Testament & Ancient Near Eastern Studies / M.A. (Biblical Archaeology)

Persuasions of archaeology : the achievements and grandeur of the Omrids at their royal cities of Samaria and JezreelSchneider, Catharina Elizabeth Johanna 01 1900 (has links)
Our perception, of the Omrid kings of the Kingdom oflsrael in the ninth century BCE, is based
on the Books of 1 and 2 Kings in the Hebrew Bible. The Biblical author's concentration, on
Omrid apostasy rather than on their abilities and accomplishments, has robbed these competant
monarchs of the prominence allotted to kings like David and Solomon. Recent archaeological
excavations, in conjunction with extra-Biblical sources, have however projected a different
image. Excavations at the royal Omrid cities of Samaria, and especially Jezreel, have indicated
that Omri, and his son Ahab, had erected immense and grandiose structures. These edifices bear
testimony to periods of peace, stability and great economic prosperity. The Omrids deserve
new assessments as to their accomplishments, and therefore, by means of visible and tangible
structural remains, I wish to promote the persuasion of archaeology as vindication of Omrid
grandeur and achievement at Samaria and Jezreel. / Biblical and Ancient Studies / M.A. (Biblical Studies)

Phoenician ships : types, trends, trade and treacherous trade routesSmith, Anne Marie (Biblical archaeologist) 11 1900 (has links)
Phoenician ships in the broadest sense of the word are the focus of this dissertation
and it encompasses the entire period of both Phoenician and Punic seafaring. The
study is quantitative, largely historical and archaeological, with the use of secondary
sources as well as iconography. The origins of the Phoenician construction technique,
the mortise-and-tenon joints, are investigated as well as the various types of
Phoenician ships. These are analysed under the headings Merchant ships, Warships
and Utility ships.
The materials mentioned in Ezekiel’s prophecy about ‘The Ship Tyre’, are analysed,
whether they fit the purpose for which they are mentioned. The production process of
purple cloth with the use of Murex molluscs is described in detail including an analysis
of the boats used to catch the molluscs.
The possibility is investigated of whether the Ashkelon Dog Burials could be related to
the Phoenician trade in dogs, and whether they could have served as ship dogs.
Lastly the difficulties encountered in sailing through the narrow sea straits of the
Mediterranean Sea are described, which are subject to Internal waves, affecting the
surface water. / Old Testament & Ancient Near Eastern Studies / M. A. (Biblical Archaeology)
