Accepting Papers? Yes

Call For Papers: The Hebrew Bible, History, and Archaeology unit is hosting two sessions for the 2024 meeting and co-sponsoring a third session with the Historiography and the Hebrew Bible program unit. First, we are hosting a book review panel, focused on the edited volume From Nomadism to Monarchy?: Revisiting the Early Iron Age Southern Levant (Eisenbrauns, 2023), which will include the editors and four invited panelists. Second, we invite papers for an open session. We welcome any paper proposal that fosters discussion about the relationship between archaeology in all its aspects (including survey, excavation, and epigraphic data) and the history of the ancient Israelite kingdoms and/or the Hebrew Bible. We strongly encourage graduate students and junior faculty to submit abstracts for this session. Finally, we are co-sponsoring a book review session on Omer Sergi's book, The Two Houses of Israel: State Formation and the Origins of Pan-Israelite Identity (SBL Press, 2023).
