Early Jerusalem

Aren Maeier makes mention of an essay of his recently published titled

The Archaeology of Early Jerusalem: From the Late Proto-Historic Periods (ca. 5th Millennium BCE) to the End of the Bronze Age (ca. 1200 BCE).

It’s Pp. 171–88 in Unearthing Jerusalem: 150 Years of Archaeological Research in the Holy City, eds. K. Galor and G. Avni. Winona Lake, IN: Eisenbrauns.

This essay is a brief survey of the archaeological sequence of the city of Jerusalem between the end of the Prehistoric (Neolithic) period until the end of the Late Bronze Age (ca. 1200 b.c.e), a time-span of roughly 4,000 years (for a more detailed survey, see Maeir 2000 [including additional references], with some updates in Cahill 2003).
