The arid areas of the Negev and Edom played a prominent role in the
socio-economic and cultural development of the Iron Age civilizations of
the southern Levant and northwestern Arabia, being at the interface of
key trade routes, providing essential resources and developing cultic
practices that spread to neighbouring regions. This volume comprises the
papers presented at the symposium "Unearthing the Wilderness: Workshop
on the History and Archaeology of the Negev and Edom in the Iron Age",
held at the W.F. Albright Institute of Archaeological Research,
Jerusalem, on 12 December 2010, and supplemented with studies from other
leading scholars. Research questions include the socio-economic and
political fluctuations in the arid margins of the southern Levant,
southern Judah, and the northern Hejaz in the Iron Age, the exploitation
of the copper mines of Timna under New Kingdom Egyptian and local
control, the relationships between the southern Levant and the Arabian
world as seen from the archaeological and epigraphic record, and the
question of the "Edomite" pottery assemblage in late Iron Age Judah.
