Abstract

A provenance study of ceramics from the site in the northeast Sinai, using neutron activation analysis, has shown the origin to be in central, coastal, and northern Israel (the latter was the source of Samaria ware ). There seems to be no locally manufactured pottery at the site, based on the neutron activation analysis results. -- AATA
