Abstract
Recent discoveries in the area west of Jerusalem at Khirbet Qeiyafa have provided, together with fresh data on a cantonal cultural horizon in a crucial period between the 11 th and the 10 th century BC, also a fierce debate, again and again linked to the classic topic of Biblical Archaeology of the historicity of David and his enterprises – i.e. the origins of the Israelite monarchy and related Iron Age chronology. This case, together with the nearby excavations at Khirbet al-Muqanna (the Philistine Ekron) and Tell es-Safi (the Philistine Gath), illustrates perils and opportunities of different historical and archaeological approaches to archaeological record.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
