This volume is the first in a planned series of reports on the
investigations of the Lahav Research Project (LRP) at Tell Halif,
located near Kibbutz Lahav in southern Israel. The LRP has focused
widely on stratigraphic, environmental, and ethnographic problems
related to the history of settlement at Tell Halif and in its
immediate surroundings, from prehistoric through modern times. It
is fitting that this LRP series begins by focusing on remains from
Site 101, which was the first location excavated by the team in
1973. This initial effort involved investigation of a warren of
shallow caves that had been exposed by efforts to widen the road
into the kibbutz. In this volume, J. P. Dessel reports on the
excavation undertaken at Site 101 during Phase II and is also
supplemented by his later research. The excavation itself was
guided throughout by Dessel's determination to require the total
retrieval of all ceramic remains. It was his rigorous
follow-through on all details involved in the analysis of materials
that produced the pioneering results herein presented. Readers will
find the book important for the archaeology and history of the
southern Levant in the 4th millennium B.C.E. as well as for
connections between the Levant and surrounding regions in that era.
