This publication presents research on, and a catalogue of a collection of over 17,000 objects from the British excavations at Lachish (Tell ed-Duweir), which are now housed in the British Museum. Lachish, is a large multi-period tell site with remains dating from the Neolithic period onwards. Its major periods of occupation cover the Bronze and Iron Ages (4th to mid 1st millennium BC). The book is intended to make this important collection more readily accessible to researchers, and takes the form of a detailed, annotated handlist. It also provides new information on some previously published objects, as well as correcting a number of errors in the original reports. Designed as a research tool for those interested in the archaeology of the Levant in general, as well as for those focusing on specific periods or classes of artefacts, this handlist will be an important work of reference for archaeologists working in the Near East as well as scholars w
