The Chalcolithic period was formative in Near Eastern prehistory,
being a time of fundamental social change in craft specialization,
horticulture and temple life. Gilat - a low mound, semi-communal
farming settlement in the Negev desert - is one of the few
Chalcolithic sanctuary sites in the Southern Levant. 'Archaeology,
Anthropology and Cult' presents a critical analysis of the
archaeological data from Gilat. The book brings together
archaeological finds and anthropological theory to examine the role
of religion in the evolution of society and the power of ritual in
promoting change. This comprehensive volume, which includes
artefact drawings, photographs, maps and data tables, will be of
interest to students and scholars of ancient history, anthropology,
archaeology, as well as biblical and religious studies.
