H. J. Franken † [+-]
H. J. Franken, who died in 2005, was Emeritus Professor at the State University Leiden, The Netherlands, and the author of Excavations at Tell Deir 'Alla: The Late Bronze Sanctuary (Louvain, 1992) and of numerous articles on Near Eastern archaeology.

Description

This chapter discusses the later Roman sherds found on the eastern Ophel slopes. These sherds, with the exception of two sherds of class 12D2 (jars), had only been found in the dumps lower down the slopes and in Site C. It is considered that these later sherds were transported lower down the slopes by erosion of the surfaces in higher areas.
