The articles deal with a wide range of subjects within the field of Syrian archaeology. To a large extent they are based on field-work carried out by the authors in recent years. Other articles treat certain classes of objects now preserved in museums all over the world.
One hundred and forty plates and extensive bibliographies enhance the value of this book for scholars and students in the field of Near Eastern archaeology, anthropology and cultural history.
