Tell el- OrÄme is a large archaeological site on the northwestern shore of the Sea of Galilee. Excavations of the site by Volkmar Fritz (1938-2007) in the 1980s and 1990s revealed its archaeological importance: Tell el- OrÄme or ancient Kinneret had been a major city in the Bronze and Iron Ages. Stefan Münger (Bern), Juha Pakkala (Helsinki), Jürgen Zangenberg (Leiden) and Wolfgang Zwickel (Mainz) formed the Kinneret Regional Project in order to restart the excavations and to clarify unsolved problems. Building on Fritz´s results, the Kinneret Regional Project excavated from 2003 to 2008, and concluded that the site´s habitation left remains of at least 13 strata dating from the Chalcolithic/Early Bronze Age to Iron Age II. Remains of human activity predating and postdating these periods were also detected. This publication is the first of two volumes of the renewed excavations since the 1990s. It is thus the final excavation report that includes the results gained by Fritz in the 1990s and the results of the Kinneret Regional Project in the following decade. The volume covers the Chalcolithic/Bronze Age and Iron Age II strata, as well as other remains mainly from later periods. The current volume also contains the publication of some additional archaeological projects on the tell, and special studies on a number of finds and topics related to the excavations, such as stone objects, flints, archaeobotany, and archaeozoology.mehr
