|
Tall Zirā’a is located in the middle of Wādī al-‘Arab, was continuously
occupied for at least 5,000 years, and offers a unique insight into the
way of life of the region’s people. Its outstanding archaeological
significance results from the artesian spring in its centre, which
created optimal settlement conditions over thousands of years. For this
reason, Tall Zirā’a offers an unusual opportunity to compile a
comparative stratigraphy for northern Jordan from the Early Bronze Age
to the Islamic period, while also making it possible to trace cultural
developments in urban life, handicrafts and the history of religion over
long periods. Moreover, here it is possible to study abundant remains
from the Biblical periods in a broad cultural and historical context.
Within the “Gadara Region Project”, archaeologists have explored Tall
Zirā’a for more than 10 years.
The results are presented in nine volumes. Publikation der Ausgrabungen auf dem Tall Zira’a und der Surveys im Umland in den Jahren 2001–2011 Der Siedlungshügel Tall Zira’a im Wadi al-‘Arab in Jordanien war mindestens 5000 Jahre lang besiedelt und gewährt einzigartige Einblicke in die Lebenswelt der Menschen dort. Eine Quelle hat optimale Siedlungsbedingungen geschaffen, weshalb der Ort von besonderem archäologischem Interesse ist: Er ermöglicht eine vergleichende Stratigraphie Nordjordaniens von der Frühbronzezeit bis zur Islamischen Zeit und damit die Nachverfolgung kultureller Entwicklungen im städtischen Leben, im Handwerk und in der Religionsgeschichte. Zudem können die Überreste aus biblischer Zeit in einem weitgefassten kulturellen und historischen Kontext untersucht werden. Im Rahmen des »Gadara Region Project« haben Archäologen zehn Jahre lang am Tall Zira’a gegraben. see also: http://www.tallziraa.de/Endpublikation/1_470.html There are very few places on either side of the Jordan River where it is possible to explore the history of the Southern Levant in such a small area as in the Wadi al-‘Arab. This deeply incised valley with all its diversity is an archaeological stroke of fortune. Numerous springs, fertile soil and a temperate climate afford excellent living conditions. Tall Zira‘a is located in the middle of this valley, and the research focuses on exploring this hill. Continuously occupied for at least 5,000 years, it offers unique insights into the way of life of the region’s people. Its outstanding archaeological significance is a result from the artesian spring located in its centre, which created exceptional settlement conditions over thousands of years. For this reason, Tall Zira‘a offers a unique opportunity to compile an unbroken comparative stratigraphy for northern Jordan from the Early Bronze Age to the Islamic period. It allows to trace cultural developments in urban life, handicrafts and the history of religion over long periods. In addition, it is possible to study the abundant remains from biblical times in the context of other cultural and historical periods. The German Protestant Institute of Archaeology in the Holy Land (GPIA), in cooperation with the Biblical-Archaeological Institute Wuppertal (BAI) as well as with other scholars and scientific institutions, are working on the exploration of the lower section of the Wadi al-?Arab. After the BAI started the archaeological explorations in 2001, the GPIA Institutes in Amman and Jerusalem have participated in the project since 2004 and 2006, respectively. The aim is to explore the diverse civilisations, spanning 8,000 years in the history of humankind, in this geopolitically important wadi, which is attractive not only because of its landscape but also because it served as an important link between the Mediterranean and Transjordan. The most significant site in the Wadi al-?Arab is Tall Zira?a (geographic coordinates: 211 940/225 180). The tall measures approx. 200 m in diameter; its highest point is located at 17 m below sea level. |

Der zweite Band des Grabungsberichts präsentiert Funde aus den Strata
25-17 von Tall Zira'a, die die Besiedlung des Tells zwischen der frühen
Bronzezeit II/III und der mittleren Bronzezeit IIB dokumentieren. Ein
Erdrutsch hatte in der Zeit von Stratum 16 (vor 1500 v.Chr.) den
westlichen Bereich der Siedlung zerstört; ein etwa 120 m2 großes Gebiet
im Zentrum von Areal I war davon jedoch nicht betroffen, so dass
bedeutende architektonische Zeugnisse aus jener Zeit ausgegraben werden
konnten. Funde aus der frühen und mittleren Bronzezeit |
