This volume is the outcome of an international conference held at
Tel Aviv University, May 29-31, 2001. The idea for the conference
germinated at the fifth Transeuphratene colloquy in Paris in March
2000. The Tel Aviv conference was organized in order to encourage
investigation into the obscure five or six decades preceding the
Persian conquests in the latter part of the 6th century. The essays
here are organized in 5 parts: (1) The Myth of the Empty Land
Revisited; (2) Cult, Priesthood, and Temple; (3) Military and
Governmental Aspects; (4) Archaeological Perspectives on the 6th
Century B.C.E.; and (5) Exiles and Foreigners in Egypt and
Babylonia. Contributors: H. M. Barstad, B. Oded, L. S. Fried, S.
Japhet, J. Blenkinsopp, G. N. Knoppers, Y. Amit, D. Edelman, Y.
Hoffman, R. H. Sack, D. Vanderhooft, J. W. Betlyon, A. Lemaire, C.
E. Carter, O. Lipschits, A. Zertal, J. R. Zorn, B. Porten, and R.
Zadok.
