Parr, P: The Levant in Transition

...the book provides a useful overview of the variety of settlement and organizational forms prevalent during EB IV.' -- Graham Philip American Journal of Archaeology January 2011 The chapters in the volume are worthwhile for their geographical scope: not only do they address the archaeology of Israel and Jordan, but information about the recent excavations at Sidon in Lebanon is provided, along with valuable summaries of investigations at Ebla, Tell Mishrifeh, and the Jebel Bishri region of Syria. [...] all of the chapters in this volume are themselves worthwhile contributions that go far to illuminate this exceedingly complex period of transition and change, even while offering a variety of modern techniques and perspectives.' -- Lisa Cooper BASOR 361 2011
