ASOR is pleased to announce the sale of the first three volumes of The Ancient Pottery of Israel and Its Neighbors (edited by Seymour Gitin) at a special discounted price for institutions affiliated with ASOR! There is a discount for any institution with an ASOR member, and there is an even steeper discount for ASOR member institutions.
These three volumes offer a comprehensive corpus of ceramic forms and their typological development organized according to period, geographical region, and/or cultural tradition. The focus of each chapter is on the most characteristic pottery types and decorative motifs selected from a broad range of sites. Unique in scope, this publication presents a wide range of ceramic types accompanied by specially prepared pottery plates and color photos illustrating over five thousand forms. A classic reference work, it serves as an essential resource for archaeologists and other scholars and students of ancient Near Eastern studies. The two volumes covering the Iron Age through the Hellenistic period were published in 2015 and the third volume, dealing with the Middle and Late Bronze Ages, in 2019. A fourth volume covering the Neolithic and Chalcolithic periods and the Early Bronze Age is in preparation.
