Home on the Range at Iron Age Hazor, Isotope Edition, Or, The Cows Come Home Regardless of Your So-Called Borders, Humans
from This Week in the Ancient Near East · host thisweekintheancientneareast
Iron Age Hazor sat in the middle of a complicated geo-political situation: Aram-Damascus to the north, the Phoenicians to the northwest, and Israel to the south. This made no difference to cows, who were taken to graze all over regardless of what the map said. Of course, they couldn’t read maps. Except maybe cow 5754. Suspicious. With a host of bovine reminiscences from your hosts!
