4	Exploring the role of water in the social dynamics of the Old Testament Swart, Elanij Chantal 08 1900 (has links) The availability of water and subsequent systems that developed around it played an important role throughout biblical lands and their surroundings. Water’s contribution spanned across all facets of life, times of peace and war, affecting the elite and the poor. The research focuses on the different aspects of water, both in its natural and anthropogenic distribution. The combination of archaeology, anthropology, and geography explores the following questions: What can be learnt from contemporary civilisations? What social implications did water systems have on ancient Palestine’s society? Did the extent of the impact lessen once water was secured? The multidisciplinary approach aids in understanding the effect of water availability the social structures required for the creation, use, and maintenance of the different water systems. Water was, at first, a basic need for survival in rural areas, turning into a magnificent show of power of the ruling elite of ancient Palestine. / Biblical and Ancient Studies / M.A. (Biblical Archaeology) Water Ancient Palestine Social complexity Old Testament Mesopotamia Egypt Biblical narratives Geography Irrigation Archaeology Drainage 220.85537 Water in the Bible Water -- Religious aspects Water -- Symbolic aspects Water and civilization Palestine -- Antiquities Iraq -- Antiquities Narration in the Bible
5	A historical, geographical and archaeological survey of the Jordan Valley in the Late Bronze Age Schaaf, James Mark 08 1900 (has links) This thesis is a multi-disciplinary survey of the Central Jordan Valley during the Late Bronze Age (1500-1200 BC) illustrated with an abundant use of maps and tables. The purpose is to determine how the Jordan Valley functioned as an economic unit during the Late Bronze Age. This thesis surveys the geographical, historical and archaeological records related to the Jordan Valley during the Late Bronze Age. A chapter is devoted to each field, geography (physical and human), history (Egyptian and Hebrew Bible) and archaeology. The data from each discipline is used to individually answer two questions: 1) was the Jordan Valley a single geographic/economic unit in the Late Bronze Age? 2) to what extent was the Jordan Valley integrated/interacting with the east-west highlands and the larger region in the Late Bronze Age? The primary objectives are to 1) explore and model a historical geographic hermeneutic for understanding the human experience of the Ancient Near East; and 2) lay a foundation for understanding the role of the Jordan Valley in affecting the Biblical periods of the Israelite monarchy to the Roman period.The answers from each chapter are then synthesized into a single geographic historical archaeological picture of the Central Jordan Valley during the Late Bronze Age. The Central Jordan Valley was divided into two sections: a fertile, populated, well connected north-central section and an isolated, sparsely populated southern section with limited agricultural zones. Trade with and between the eastern and western highlands is well represented by artifactual parallels in and through the Jordan Valley, the north-central section on a regional and international scale and the southern section on a more local scale. The thesis concludes that there are more artifactual points of connection between the Jordan Valley and the eastern highlands than with the western highlands. An ‘early conquest’ model of the Hebrew Bible is plausible within the historical records of the Egyptian 18th and 19th Dynasties and the geographical and archaeological records of the Jordan Valley during the Late Bronze Age. / Old Testament & Ancient Near Eastern Studies Amarna Letters ‘Apiru Central Jordan Valley Chocolate-on-White ware Climate of Jordan Valley Early Conquest Model Earthquakes in the Jordan Valley Egypt in the Jordan Valley Emergence of Israel Geology of Jordan Valley Hydrology of Jordan Valley Israel in the Jordan Valley Jordan River Jordan River Floods Joshua Judges Late Bronze Age Maps of Jordan Valley Plains of Moab Rain shadow of Jordan Valley Shasu Topography of Jordan Valley Trade in the Late Bronze Age 18th and 19th Dynasties 933 Bible -- Antiquities Tell el-Amarna tablets Jordan River Valley -- Antiquities Bronze age -- Jordan River Valley Hydrology -- Jordan River Valley Water-supply -- Jordan River Valley Water and civilization
