Opis książki:

Książka zawiera monograficzne opracowanie petrograficzno-geochemiczne starożytnej ceramiki pochodzącej ze stanowisk Qumran i Jerycho w basenie Morza Martwego. Jest to interesujące studium z dziedziny interdyscyplinarnej nauki zwanej archeometrią lub petroarcheologią, poświęcone ważnym i powszechnie znanym na całym świecie stanowiskom archeologicznym. Autora cechuje nowoczesne podejście do podejmowanego tematu badawczego, rzetelny warsztat metodyczny, staranne opracowanie, wnikliwa interpretacja i dyskusja wyników.
This book is a petrographic and chemical study of ancient pottery coming from the Dead Sea region. It is a study in the field of an interdisciplinary science called archaeometry and is devoted to the important and worldwide known archaeological sites: Qumran, Jericho and smaller on the coast of Dead Sea like Khirbet Mazin and Callirrhoe (`Ain ez-Zara). Pottery from these sites as well as clay samples collected in the field are compared with one another with respect to chemical, mineral and micropaleontological composition, which is documeted by numerous colour photographs, charts and tables. On the level of interpretations the author polemicises with a thesis recently forced by Israeli archeologists that during the first century C.E. the Qumran site was a pottery production center whose raw material came in by water supply system.
