Abstract

The weaponry of the Late Bronze Age of the Southern Levant has been little-studied in recent decades. This work examines which kinds of edged weaponry and knives were used during the Late Bronze Age in Palestine and Transjordan and sets the whole within the wider historical and cultural development of the LBA. A type system in which to classify these objects is developed in an effort to determine any patterns which may exist with relation to the weaponry and projectiles in use during the LBA and between the distribution and contexts of the period in which the objects are found.
