Results of the 2001 Kerak Plateau Early Bronze Age Survey / Two Early Alphabetic Inscriptions from the Wadi El-Hol, Hardcover by Chesson, Meredith S. (EDT); Darnell, John Coleman (EDT); Kuijt, Ian; Whiting, Charlotte; Dobbs-Allsopp, F. W.; Lundberg, Marilyn J.; McCarter, P. Kyle; Zuckerman, Bruce; Manassa, Colleen, ISBN 0897570715, ISBN-13 9780897570718, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US The first piece reports on assessments of eight sites in Jordan with substantial Early Bronze Age occupation, looking at architectural features and the nature of preservation. Most of the sites are in very poor condition, terraced and plowed extensively or damaged by later construction. The second piece is subtitled New Evidence for the Origin of the Alphabet from the Western Desert of Egypt, the wadi being about halfway between Luxor and Hou. Now a deserted wasteland, the area once teemed with economic and military activity. All the contributors of both are from US universities. There is no index.
