Where did the Israelites originate? What was the fate of the
Canaanites? In this revealing introduction, Jonathan M. Golden
tackles these and other hotly debated questions. Drawing on the
extensive and often surprising archeological record, he looks at
daily life in antiquity, providing rich portraits of the role of
women, craft production, metallurgy, technology, political and
social organization, trade, and religious practices. Golden traces
the great religious traditions that emerged in this region back to
their most ancient roots, drawing on the evidence of scriptures and
other texts as well as the archeological record. Though the
scriptures stress the primacy of Israel, the author considers the
Canaanites and Philistines as well, examining the differences
between highland and coastal cultures and the cross-fertilization
between societies. He offers a clear, objective look at the
evidence for the historical accuracy of the biblical narrative,
based on the latest thinking among archeologists worldwide.
