The adage that an army “marches on its stomach” finds renewed emphasis in this collection of essays. Focusing on military diet and supply from Homer through the Roman Empire, Diet and Logistics in Greek and Roman Warfare explains regional dietary options and reassesses traditional notions of “provisioning” while exploring topics ranging from strategy and subterfuge to trade and terror. Through fresh insights drawn from current research and excavation spanning the Greco-Roman world, contributors confirm how providing food and drink for soldiers was critical to every army’s success and survival. This volume stimulates reevaluation of ancient militaries and encourages new research.

A study of the plan of Ezekiel’s temple
Author:
Ezekiel’s temple is presented as a vision. It just had to be displayed as a sign of hope for the exiled people. Therefore the exiles were not instructed to build this temple. It will be built in a distant future, than the temple will never again be defiled and the Glory of the Lord will return to His house for ever. The architecture of Ezekiel’s temple resembles in many respects Solomon’s temple and the ancient Near East style of building. The plan and architecture of Solomon’s and Ezekiel’s temple had a major influence on western architecture and urban design.

The 2013 to 2019 Seasons
Tel Kabri was the center of a Canaanite polity during the Middle Bronze Age. Initial excavations conducted at the site from 1986 to 1993 revealed the remains of a palace dating primarily during the first half of the second millennium BCE. Excavations were resumed at the site under the co-direction of the present editors, Assaf Yasur-Landau and Eric H. Cline, beginning in 2005. This volume presents the results of the work done at Tel Kabri during the years from 2013 to 2019, focused especially on the exploration of the rooms within the Wine Storage Complex of the palace.
