Emergence of prehistoric urbanism and increasing social complexity in the Early Bronze Age of the southern Levant

 

202106_follow_the_pots

 

The ‘Follow the Pots’ research program explores two interconnected sides of an archaeological looting story: the conventional archaeological investigation of the emergence of prehistoric urbanism and increasing social complexity in the Early Bronze Age of the southern Levant, and the multiple and contested values of this archaeological heritage to multiple stakeholders today.


What this means is that we study how archaeologists, people living in the southern Ghor, looters, intermediaries, museum administrators, government officials, antiquities dealers, and collectors think about, acquire, and use pots and other grave goods from the Early Bronze Age (EBA) cemeteries of Fifa, Bab adh-Dhra` and en-Naqa/es-Safi.


Follow the Pots (FTP) emerges from several years of archaeological and ethnographic fieldwork and analysis by Chesson, Hill, and Kersel, including the Landscapes of the Dead project and more broadly the Expedition to the Dead Sea Plain.
