On Pottery in Assyrian Style: A Rejoinder

Abstract

In a recent article, Nadav Na'aman and Yifat Thareani-Sussely (2006), argue that imitations of Assyrian pottery made their first appearance in the southern regions of the Land of Israel during the 7th century BCE. Their claim is in direct response to my dating such vessel types at Tel Beersheba and Arad to the last third of the 8th century BCE (Singer-Avitz 1999; 2002). Na'aman and Thareani-Sussely propose that the Tel Beersheba vessel types are not of Assyrian origin and that their typological derivation should be traced to Transjordan (Edom). The aim of this rejoinder is to discuss their arguments and to show that my assertions, not theirs, are correct.
