"Final Report of Excavations on the Hill of the Ophel by R.A.S. Macalister and J.
Garrow Duncan 1923-1925 contains the publication of the finds from this excavation
a century ago that have been curated and stored in the archives of the Palestine Exploration
Fund in London. This volume includes a history of the excavation and detailed descriptions
and illustrations of finds ranging from the Chalcolithic through to the Ottoman periods.
These include pottery, metal, bone and glass objects, seal impressions, figurines,
clay tobacco pipes and other items, many of which have never been published before.
Among the more significant finds from the excavation, both the subject of special
studies, are an incised pottery sherd with images of two deity figurines interpreted
as representing Yahweh and Asherah, and two incense burners that contribute to our
understanding of the trade in incense in the Near East in the second and first millennia
BCE. This volume will be of interest to students and researchers of ancient near
eastern archaeology, and particularly those engaged in research in the southern Levant.
The report complements the publications of the many subsequent excavations in the
same area of Jerusalem, a location that is still today the focus of much attention
for historical, religious and political, not to mention archaeological, reasons."
