Dwie nowe inskrypcje fenickie z Ibizy
Baranowski, Krzysztof (Wydawnictwo KUL, 2012)
The 2003 archaeological campaign in Puig des Molins-a Punic necropolis in Ibiza-yielded two inscriptions, both of which were published recently in a volume of studies dedicated to M. H. Fantar. The first inscription (7th cent. B.C.E.) is a bone door-plaque inscribed with dedication to Eshmun-Melqart, a seldom attested Phoenician “double deity.” Among the text’s distinctive features is the donor’s genealogy which goes back six generations and contains rare and archaic names. The second inscription (3rd cent. B.C.E.), engraved on the pedestal of a missing statue, is also dedicatory. The people of tg’lbn-an as-yet unidentified locale-offered the statue to the Tyrian deity Melqart in the fulfillment of a vow. The two inscriptions attest to the mosaic-like complexity of the origins of the Phoenician population of Ibiza. The first inscription contains Cypriote elements (the relative pronoun with prosthetic aleph, and a dedication to a deity attested mainly in Cyprus) while the second preserves the memory to Tyre by invoking its principal patron-deity.

An overview of artefacts with cuneiform inscriptions from the Land of Israel shows that the use of cuneiform script in this regions falls into two neatly distinguishable periods, each having own characteristics. The cuneiform tradition of southern Canaan originated from contacts between Hazor and Mari. Writing was adopted in the Old Babylonian period and used for administration and epistolary exchange. From the beginning, cuneiform script was taught locally and transmitted in families, from one generation to another, as was the case with other professions. In the Late Bronze Age, the local practice of writing expanded and participated in a larger western peripheral stream of cuneiform tradition. Its demise was the result of political and cultural changes which occurred at the end of the Late Bronze Age. Cuneiform writing appeared again in the Land of Israel with Assyrian occupation at the end of the eight cent. B.C.E. In contrast to the Late Bronze Age, in the Neo-Assyrian period cuneiform writing was not adopted by the indigenous population nor taught locally, as the lack of scholarly texts indicates. From this period, only two categories of documents survive: royal stele and administrative tablets. Several cuneiform artefacts from the Neo-Babylonian and Persian periods are difficult to interpret. Some of them had to be brought from abroad; others may testify to occasional use of cuneiform writing.
