- W4237600608 abstract "History & Geography Christopher T. Begg, Andrew W. Litke, Victor H. Matthews, Randy C. Payne, William J. Urbrock, and Fred W. Guyette ________ 288. [Cyprus] M. G. Amadasi and J. A. Zamora, “The Phoenician Name of Cyprus: New Evidence from Early Hellenistic Times,” JSS 63 (2018) 77–97. The Phoenician name of Cyprus was not known with certainty until now. From the beginning of the Iron Age until the Hellenistic period, the island was divided into independent kingdoms, each of which took its name from that of its capital city. For this reason, only the names of towns or regions—not that of the entire island—appear in local inscriptions of the period in question with the result that the island’s name in Phoenician has been unknown. In our paper, we review all relevant evidence concerning the question, from the second and first millennia b.c., both internal and external, and present a new document, which definitively settles the question of the Phoenician name for Cyprus.

In the previous chapter (see #48), I surveyed evidence for scribes and libraries in the ANE and the Hellenistic and Roman worlds. In this chapter, I narrow the focus to biblical Israel, beginning with the Iron Age kingdoms of Israel and Judah until the Babylonian destruction in 587 b.c.e., continuing through the Persian and early Hellenistic periods, and concluding with the Second Jewish Revolt against Rome (135 b.c.e.). I exclude the Qumran evidence (with the exception of a few pertinent texts), which I deal with in chap. 4 (see #703). In the first section of the chapter, I survey the epigraphic and literary evidence for scribes and writing, while in the second section I look at the archaeological evidence for book collections, archives, and libraries. The essay concludes with an appendix entitled “Scribes in the Synoptic Gospels.” [p. 49, adapted—C.T.B.] 290. Shimon Dar, “Archaeological Evidence for the Settlement Enterprises of the Hasmonean House in the Districts of Ofaraiam, Lod and Ramataim,” LASBF 68 (2018) 227–46. D.’s paper surveys a dozen archaeological sites that have been excavated in the ancient districts cited in his title in recent years. These districts were ceded to the Hasmonean rulers of Judea by King Demetrius II (reigned 145–140 b.c.e.), a Seleucid ruler who had a troubled reign. Prior to the excavations, only written sources were available to scholars for the reconstruction of the actual process referred to in 1 Macc 11:32–34. The excavations revealed the existence of many small villages and farmsteads established by [End Page 86] the Hasmonean rulers, particularly under John Hyrcanus I (134–104 b.c.e.) and his successors. This process of settlement continued until the Herodian period. At the excavated sites, many agricultural installations were unearthed, as were mikvaot, stone vessels, coins of the Hasmonean rulers, and synagogues in the larger settlements. During the two revolts against Rome, many of the settlements were destroyed and abandoned, especially after the Bar Kokhba war (132–136 c.e.). Several generations later, they were resettled by non-Jewish populations. [Adapted from published abstract—C.T.B.] 291. [Siloam Tunnel] Philip R. Davies, “The Siloam Tunnel Revisited,” Finding Myth and History, 30–50 [see #789]. In this essay, D. revisits an article that he and J. Rogerson published in 1996 in Biblical Archaeologist. In it they argued that the so-called Siloam Tunnel was built by a Hasmonean king in the second century b.c.e. rather than by Hezekiah. D. provides an updated discussion of the relevant issues in archaeology, history, biblical tradition, geology, and paleography regarding the tunnel. He concludes that while it may never be known who built the tunnel, “Hezekiah is a poor candidate.”—A.W.L. 292. [Nebuchadnezzar II] Alexander Fantalkin, “In Defense of Nebuchadnezzar II the Warrior,” Altorientalische Forschungen 44 (2017) 201–8. Recent scholarship tends to downplay the military achievements of Nabû-kudurrīuṣur II (Nebuchadnezzar II..." @default.
