note = {Tell el-ʻAbd (Nord-Syrien, Tabqa Dam Basin) wurde 1971/72 von Adnan
Bounni and 1992–1994 vom Altorientalischen Seminar der Universität
Tübingen untersucht, deren Ausgrabungen die vorangehenden syrischen
Ergebnisse bestätigten und ergänzten um Schichten der 1. Hälfte des
3. Jahrtausends v.Chr., die wohl wichtigste Epoche des Tells. Dieser
Band (E009677400 5/2) ist den Kleinfunden gewidmet (anthropomorphen
Figuren, Tier-Figuren, Schmuck und Objekten aus Knochen, Metall und
Stein) und den Ergebnissen der umweltarchäologischen Studien
(Archäobotanik, Archäozoologie, Anthrakologie). Stratigraphie und
Architektur werden ausführlich im dritten und letzten Band der
Endpublikation vorgestellt werden (E009677400 5/1, in Vorbereitung),
die 2014 mit der Präsentation der Keramik des 3. Jahrtausend begann
(AVO 16/2).                                                     Tell
el-ʻAbd (Northern Syria, Tabqa Dam Basin) has been investigated in
1971/72 by Adnan Bounni and 1992–1994 by Altorientalisches Seminar
of Tübingen University, confirming the earlier Syrian results and –
more significantly – supplemented them with levels from the first
half of the 3rd millennium BC, certainly the most important period of
the tell. This volume (E009677400 5/2) is dedicated to the small
objects (anthropomorphic figurines, animal figurines, jewellery, an
objects made of bone, metal and stone) and the results of
environmental studies (archaeobotany, archaeozoology and
anthracology). It thus adds the evaluation of the remaining finds plus
the results of the investigations into fauna and flora so that finds
and environmental conditions together make arise an overall picture of
the settlement. Stratigraphy and architecture are intended will be
fully elaborated as the topic of the third and last volume of the
Final Reports (E009677400 5/1, in preparation) which began in 2014
with the presentation of the 3rd-millennium ceramics (AVO 16/2).
