Today, Itzik Shai informed me that at long last (4 years since the actual conference, and about 3 years since the papers were submitted), two joint papers from the Safi team have just appeared.
Although I have not yet seen them in published form, the conference proceedings of the ICAANE meeting that was in Berlin in 2004 has appeared (see here on the recent 6 ICAANE in Rome). In the volume, there are two papers relating to the Tell es-Safi/Gath excavations:
* Shai, I., Ben-Shlomo, D., and Maeir, A.M.
2008 The Philistine Material Culture in Process: The Late Philistine Decorated Ware (“Ashdod Ware”) as a Case Study of Cultural Transformation. Pp. 235–44 in The Proceedings of the 4th International Congress of the Archaeology of the Ancient Near, 29 March – 3 April 2004, Freie Universität Berlin, Volume II. East Social and Cultural Transformation. The Archaeology of Transitional Periods and Dark Ages. Excavation Reports, eds. H. Kuehne, Czichon and F. Kreppner. Wiesbaden: Harrassowitz.
* Shai, I., and Maeir, A.M.
2008 The Iron Age IIA Pottery Assemblage at Tell es-Safi/Gath. Pp. 419–28 in The Proceedings of the 4th International Congress of the Archaeology of the Ancient Near, 29 March – 3 April 2004, Freie Universität Berlin, Volume II. East Social and Cultural Transformation. The Archaeology of Transitional Periods and Dark Ages. Excavation Reports, eds. H. Kuehne, Czichon and F. Kreppner. Wiesbaden: Harrassowitz.
Hopefully, we will receive copies of the volume and offprints in the near future.
