Οι απαρχές της γραφής στην ανατολική Μεσόγειο / The Beginning of Writing in Levant

O Nissim Amzallag (Πανεπιστήμιο Ben Gurion) συζητά τις αρχαιότερες μαρτυρίες για τη γραφή στην ανατολική Μεσόγειο. Φαίνεται πως τα αρχαιότερα ευρήματα προέρχονται από την Χαναάν, 6.000 χρόνια πριν, κι είναι τρισδιάστατα γραπτά κείμενα καθώς όλες οι επιφάνειες των σχετικών αντικειμένων είναι γραμμένες:

When did people start writing in the Levant?

Ένα εργοστάσιο παρασκευής garum στην Ασκάλωνα / A garum Factory in Ashkelon

Εγκαταστάσεις του εργοστασίου garum στην Ασκάλωνα
(Φωτο: Asaf Peretz, Israel Antiquities Authority)

Ένα ρωμαϊκό εργοστάσιο παρασκευής garum έφεραν στο φως οι αρχαιολόγοι 2 χλμ έξω από την αρχαία πόλη. Η παρασκευή του garum, μιας ιδιαίτερης σάλτσας που παρασκευάζονταν από τα εντόσθια ψαριών, ήταν διαδεδομένη στη ρωμαϊκή αυτοκρατορία, καθώς ήταν ένα εξαιρετικά αγαπητό άρτυμα των Ρωμαίων και των Βυζαντινών. Δεν έχουν βρεθεί, ωστόσο, αρκετά εργοστάσια παρασκευής του στο ανατολικό τμήμα της αυτοκρατορίας κι επομένως το εύρημα της Ασκαλώνος είναι ιδιαίτερα σημαντικό.
