Title: Hebrew bullae from the time of Jeremiah: Remnants of a burnt archive
Description: Jerusalem, Israel Exploitation Society, 1986. 139 pp. Fine copy. Hardcover with dustjacket. The archaeological-epigraphical discovery presented in this book represents an important contribution to the study of Ancient Israel, its history and culture. The objects form a group of 255 Hebrew seal-impressions on clay bullae from the final days of the Kingdom of Judah--the largest assemblage ever found. The bullae, small blobs of clay originally attached to strings tied around rolled papyri, served to seal documents deposited in a now-lost public archiev. The book contains illustrations, footnotes, list of abbreviations, a list of Bulla Inscriptions, and an index of names and titles. ISBN: 9789652210067
