Subsistence of Early Pastoral Nomadism in the Southern Levant: New Data from Eastern Bayir

Abstract: À partir du Néolithique récent-début du Chalcolithique, le pastoralisme nomade spécialisé s'est imposé comme le mode de subsistence privilégié dans les régions désertiques du Levant Sud, bien qu'il semble peu représenté dans le nord-est de la Jordanie et le sud-est de la Syrie. Une des raisons permettant d'expliquer ces disparités tient à la nature des territoires concernés. Les périphéries désertiques du centre-est et du sud-est jordanien constituent en effet un environnement favorable au développement du mod… Show more

“…Nevertheless, the total absence of these structures in the hamada (limestone plateau) of south‐eastern Jordan remained puzzling for a long time, especially in view of their existence in the neighbouring arid regions of the Negev and Sinai. It became all the more perplexing as the intensification of the archaeological research started to evidence an important late prehistoric (Late Neolithic‐Chalcolithic‐Early Bronze Age) human occupation in this area (Quintero, Wilke & Rollefson ; Tarawneh ; Tarawneh & Abudanah ; Abu‐Azizeh , , ; Wasse & Rollefson ; Fujii ).…”

“…Large-scale surveys and some soundings have been carried out in the past few years by Wael Abu-Azizeh and Mohammed Tarawneh, who respectively have investigated the extensive desert areas in the southeast of Jordan in the eastern Wadi Bayir (Tarawneh and Abudanah 2013) and al-Thulaythuwat (Abu-Azizeh 2013). In the same region, Hans-Georg Gebel and Hamzeh Mahasneh direct the Eastern Jafr Project, and have resumed the investigations of the Chalcolithic/EBA site of Qulban Bani Murrah (Gebel 2010); additional survey activities have been carried out by Gebel at Asma 06, quite close to Qulban Bani Murra (Gebel 2013).…”
