Shivti'el, Yinon: Cliff Shelters and Hiding Complexes

The Jewish Defense Methods in Galilee During the Roman Period. The Speleological and Archaeological Evidence. The author documents and describes all the Galilean sites so far discovered containing the traces of underground cavities hewn out and readied by Jews as refuges and hiding places during the Early Roman period. The book details the evidence and finds from the different forms of hiding complexes discovered beneath the remains of many of the Jewish settlements in Galilee chronicled by Flavius Josephus. Research into these complexes has revealed their resemblance to similar hiding systems discovered in the Judean plain. The book is copiously illustrated with plans, figures and photographs of both types of underground chambers and it discusses their connection with the desperate times faced by the Jews in Galilee throughout the entire Early Roman period, particularly during the Great Revolt. 240 Seiten mit 222 überwiegend farbigen Abb. und Karten, Großformat, Leinen (Novum Testamentum et Orbis Antiquus.
