Elites and Prestige Objects in Judah during the Late Iron Age: A Social, Economic, and Cultural Analysis
מנחים: פרופ' יובל גדות ופרופ' עידו קוך
In the late Iron Age, the society of Judah was marked by a distinct stratification, with elites occupying the upper echelons. Within this social framework, prestige objects held significant importance, serving as markers of status, power, and cultural identity. These objects, not only reflected the economic prowess of the elite but also played a crucial role in shaping inter-group relations and establishing hierarchies. Through a comprehensive social, economic, and cultural analysis, I wish to unravel the complexities surrounding the production, distribution, and consumption of these objects. Such an examination sheds light on the interconnected dynamics of elite patronage, artisan craftsmanship, and societal values, providing invaluable insights into the underlying mechanisms driving Judahite society. By examining the material culture of the Late Iron Age, this research seeks to shed some light on the intricate tapestry of power, prestige, and identity that characterized this fascinating period in ancient history.
