Biblical Archaeology Review

Biblical Archaeology Review is the flagship publication of the Biblical Archaeology Society. For more than 40 years it has been making the world of archaeology in the lands of the Bible come alive for the interested layperson. Full of vivid images and articles written by leading scholars, this is a must read for anyone interested in the archaeology of the ancient Near East.

Endnote 10 - Whatchamacallit

A “White Paper” of mine on terminology was circulated, but it found no consensus. Finally, I suggested (somewhat facetiously) that we publish a title-page styled The Archaeology of X, and then provide a following page of pull-off labels with various competing terms, which individual readers could stick on to suit themselves. It seems that we are still “hung up in the prolegomenon.”

Endnote 9 - Whatchamacallit

1988: H. Weippert, Palästina in vorhellenistischen Zeit (Palestine in Pre-Hellenistic Times).

Endnote 6 - Whatchamacallit

See n. 1; and add “Biblical Theology and Biblical Archaeology: An Appreciation of G. Ernest Wright,” Harvard Theological Review 73 (1981), pp. 1–15. Wright’s bibliography may be found in Frank M. Cross, Niels P. Lemche, and Patrick D. Miller, eds., Magnalia Dei: The Mighty Acts of God (Garden City, N.Y.: Doubleday, 1976).
