Ancient Israel did not emerge within a vacuum but rather came to
exist alongside various peoples, including Canaanites, Egyptians,
and Philistines. Indeed, Israel's very proximity to these groups
has made it difficult-until now-to distinguish the archaeological
traces of early Israel and other contemporary groups. Through an
analysis of the results from recent excavations in light of
relevant historical and later biblical texts, this book proposes
that it is possible to identify these peoples and trace culturally
or ethnically defined boundaries in the archaeological record.
Features of late second-millennium B.C.E. culture are critically
examined in their historical and biblical contexts in order to
define the complex social boundaries of the early Iron Age and
reconstruct the diverse material world of these four peoples. Of
particular value to scholars, archaeologists, and historians, this
volume will also be a standard reference and resource for students
and other readers interested in the emergence of early Israel.
