Syro-Palestinian archeology

Syro-Palestinian archaeology studies the ancient cultures and civilizations of the eastern Mediterranean region, particularly the modern countries of Syria, Israel, Palestine, Jordan, and Lebanon. This field focuses on uncovering artifacts, structures, and historical records to understand the social, political, and economic aspects of past societies. Notable for its diverse history, the region was home to various civilizations, including the Canaanites, Phoenicians, and early Israelites. By analyzing findings from excavations, researchers aim to reconstruct historical narratives, explore interactions between cultures, and reveal how geography influenced human development in this historically significant area.
