Hasmonean and Herodian Palaces at Jericho
Hasmonean and Herodian Palaces at Jericho
Volume I: Stratigraphy and Architecture

By Ehud Netzer

Final Reports of the 1973-1987 Excavations. Jericho was an agricultural center, garden city and winter resort for the Jerusalemite kings and aristocracy during the Second Temple period. The Hasmonean kings turned the western plain of Jericho into a royal estate. Next to the estate, on the banks of Wadi Qelt, these kings erected a winter palace complex with numerous gardens and swimming pools. This volume is devoted to the stratigraphy and architecture of the Hasmonean and Herodian palaces excavated and studied by the author over a 15 year period.
