In the spirit of FARLI's goals, among which are aiming to advance and promote archaeological research and develop new technological tools in the service of archaeology, FARLI has founded a new website, The Foundation for Archaeological Research of the Land of Israel's Ancient Pottery Database. This site aims to become a valuable tool for archaeologists, archaeology students and archaeology enthusiasts world wide. On this website you will find a growing picture database of ancient pottery assemblages, divided into the regions and periods in which they were used, subdivided into type categories including all the valuable information we can provide such as; a list of archaeological sites in which they were found, special features, measurements and a bibliographical reference.
The main focus of this site will be on the pottery of the Southern Levant, with special emphasis on the pottery of the Holy Land throughout the periods. However we aim to develop this site to include other geographical regions in the Ancient Near East complete with their own unique chronology. We at FARLI hope you will find this site both enjoyable and enriching.
