Summary
Abstract
This chapter offers a micro-scale perspective on the mobility of small groups of migrants and how these groups may be archaeologically visible in the already mixed material culture of the Late Bronze Age northern Levant. The fine-grained technological and analytical study of Aegean-type ceramics resulted in the identification of varied technological signatures and linking these to artisans of different cultural and geographical backgrounds.
