כותר Excavations on the southwestern margins of Giv‘ati parking Lot, Jerusalem : markers of Byzantine–Early Islamic transition.
מתוך Atiqot 106 (2022) 303–338
תקציר/הערה The small-scale excavation on the southwestern margins of Giv‘ati Parking Lot exposed important findings dating to the transition between the Byzantine and Early Islamic periods. A flagstone-paved street dating from the Byzantine period was exposed, representing one of the major thoroughfares of Jerusalem that served an important pilgrimage route. This street ceased to exist at the beginning of the Early Islamic period when the function of the area changed from residential to industrial. The remains of a small-scale metallurgical workshop, including numerous copper alloy fragments, metal slags, pottery crucible fragments and large amounts of ash, were dated to the Umayyad period. The site appears to have been abandoned in the late part of the Umayyad period. The finds comprised pottery vessels, stone and marble objects, metal finds—jewelry and fragments of liturgical implements—and coins.
