Reviews

'This is a thoroughly researched and exceptionally well written book. For scholars, it offers a great deal for future consideration, particularly regarding many additional places mentioned throughout the Bible that remain to be discussed in a similar fashion. All readers, however, will benefit from the discussions of social memory, landscape, and ruin studies as they pertain to the biblical, Near Eastern, and Mediterranean worlds.' Aaron A. Burke, Biblical Archaeology Review
