The “Monograph Series of the Institute of Archaeology of Tel Aviv University” is a platform mainly for the publication of final reports on excavations conducted by the Institute, shedding light on the history of ancient Israel and on biblical times. Volumes present the excavations of central sites, including Aphek-Antipatris, Apollonia-Arsuf, Beersheba, Beth-Shemesh, Lachish, Megiddo, Ramat Raḥel, Shiloh, Tel Malḥata, Tel Michal and many others. These final reports present the stratigraphy and finds of the excavations and offer the results of auxiliary scientific studies. Past volumes of the series have also included thematic studies, which offered innovative approaches, multi-disciplinary in nature. The series thus serves as a forum for dissemination of knowledge to the public and the scholarly community and may serve as a tool for research by future generations of scholars. The “Monograph Series of the Institute of Archaeology of Tel Aviv University” is co-published with Eisenbrauns, an imprint of Penn State University Press.
