A legacy unearthed

Digital Archaeology
Promises and Impasses
2023 || Paperback || Tuna Kalaycı e.a. || Sidestone Press
Archaeology has gone digital for some time now!

Jebel Aruda: An Uruk period temple and settlement in Syria
Volume I: Excavation and Material Culture
2023 || Paperback || Govert van Driel e.a. || Sidestone Press
Jebel Aruda, a prominent mountain ridge overlooking the Taqba Dam lake in northern Syria, was the location of a remarkable settlement that flourished between c. 3300 and 3100 BC during the so-called Uruk period. For the inhabitants the sacredness of this high place, evidenced by the discovery of a large temple complex, seems to have taken precedent over its impractical location far above the valley of the Euphrates River. The site was destroyed under unknown circumstances, leaving behind the ...

Fields, Sherds and Scholars
Recording and Interpreting Survey Ceramics
2023 || Hardcover || Anna Meens e.a. || Sidestone Press
This book is a significant contribution to the field of survey pottery studies, which is not frequently theorised, and could also serve as a guide and provide inspiration to archaeologists designing their own survey projects and methodologies.
