About the Book

English summary: The early Sumerian city Habuba South is located in the region of Habuba Kabira-South, around whose perimeters archeological traces of earlier settlements can be found. The grounds further north of the old city were sporadically inhabited. During the course of the third millennium B.C.E., there later developed the settlement mound of Habuba Kabira-Tall, which up to the early second millennium B.C.E. mostly contained a few simple houses and a defensive wall. With the construction of the Tabqa Dam Project, the excavation of the site was predominantly reduced to the south-eastern side of the settlement mound. At that location, however, the earliest settlements of the city of Habuba South were finally discovered. This volume presents the complete publication of the mobile inventory from the long-lived settlement of Habuba Kabira-Tall. Especially because of the longevity of the settlement, the materials presented here should prove helpful in the interpretation of some sporadic findings from other archeological locations within the reservoir area. Naturally, the collection of ceramics, whose forms and decorations reveal a number of shifts and changes in the course of the settlement period, is particularly rich. There is an extensive inventory of decorated pots and bowls as well as numerous small religious figurines made out of baked clay as well as animal figures, chariots, furniture, and house models related to religious practices. Stone finds such as flour mills, casting molds for the production of equipment, needles, and workbenches for processing pearls provide evidence concerning material production in the ancient city. A pottery kiln and a number of discovered relicts also indicate occasional vessel production. The site contained no written documents and only a few seal-glyphs were discovered. German description: Im Gelande von Habuba Kabira-Sud fanden sich an der Oberflache auaerhalb der fruhsumerischen Stadt Habuba-Sud vereinzelte, etwa gleichzeitige Siedlungsspuren. Auch das Gelande weiter nordlich der alten Stadt war stellenweise bewohnt. Im Verlauf des 3. Jahrtausends v.Chr. entstand dort spater der Siedlungshugel Habuba Kabira-Tall, dessen Bebauung mit meist einfachen Hausern und einer Befestigungsmauer bis in das fruhe 2. Jahrtausend v.Chr. zu verfolgen ist. Durch den Bau des Assad-Staudamms mussten sich die Grabungen vorwiegend auf den Sudosten des Siedlungshugels beschranken. Dort wurde schliealich die alteste Nutzung zur Zeit der Stadt Habuba-Sud und unter ihr der gewachsene Boden erreicht. In diesem Band wird das bewegliche Inventar der langlebigen Siedlung von Habuba Kabira-Tall vollstandig publiziert. Besonders wegen der langen Besiedlungsdauer durfte sich das hier vorgelegte Material bei der Interpretation mancher vereinzelter Befunde aus anderen Orten des Stauseegebietes als hilfreich erweisen. Sehr reich belegt ist naturlich die allgegenwartige Keramik, deren Formen und Dekore im Laufe der Zeit mehrere Zasuren erkennen lassen. Vertreten ist auch ein umfangreiches Inventar an Gefaamarken. Zahlreiche kleine Gotterfiguren aus gebranntem Ton sind ebenso wie Tierfiguren, Wagen-, Mobel- und Hausmodelle dem religiosen Bereich zuzuordnen. Steinerne Funde wie Getreidemuhlen, Gussformen zur Herstellung von Geraten und Nadeln sowie Arbeitsplatten zur Perlenfabrikation deuten auf Produktionsprozesse hin. Ein Topferofen und wiederholt beobachtete Fehlbrande verweisen auf eine gelegentliche Gefaaproduktion. Schriftzeugnisse fehlen und die Siegelglyptik ist nur sehr sparlich vertreten.
