Paléorient 39.1, 2013. The Transition Late Chalcolithic to Early Bronze Age in the Southern Levant.

La transition entre le Chalcolithique final et le Bronze ancien I dans le sud Levant fait l'objet de nombreux débats depuis plusieurs décennies. Ce volume en renouvelle les termes grâce aux matériaux archéologiques exhumés récemment ; les nouvelles données permettent dorénavant un meilleur calage chronologique et la caractérisation des dynamiques évolutives relatives aux zones d'habitat et à la culture matérielle des régions sud et limitrophes.
