ABSTRACT Masks have had a very long history in human culture. They differ in their form, function, and material through time, and from one culture to another. This paper brings attention to the newly discovered miniature terracotta masks from the classical Decapolis city of Gerasa/Jerash in Jordan dated to the Roman period. Here, four masks are introduced. The aim of this paper is to describe and to identify the personification and the function of the masks. The authors concluded that these masks are miniature replicas for pantomime characters representing Hercules and two masks for Satyr/Faunus, and the fourth mask is a replica for comic mask representing a slave character. These masks were most probably used as offerings for Dionysus.

PROJECT ABSTRACT The Khirbat al-Mafjar Archaeological Project in Jericho (2009–2014) was initiated to achieve a better understanding of Hisham’s Palace within the context of its historical and cultural landscape, and the phenomenon of the Umayyad palaces in the Levant. Six seasons of landscape archaeological survey and excavations in the hinterland of the palace have revealed a large enclosure wall surrounding the palace and an extensive water management system. The elucidation of these findings changes our perception of Hisham’s Palace. It is no longer a free-standing monument, but a palatial complex at the centre of a large agricultural estate aimed at generating revenues and expanding Umayyad political power and administration. This body of fieldwork and research will be published in a book form. The aim of the present project for which the grant will cover, is to complete the previous topographic survey leading to publication.

This report is on the 2022 survey season at Khirbet al-Mudayna al- ‘ Aliya (KMA for short), an early Iron Age site, dating to roughly the end of the 11th/early 10th century BCE . The 2.3 ha site located in south-central Jordan was previously excavated by Bruce Routledge (University of Liverpool) over several seasons between 1994 and 2004. These excavations showed it was an Iron Age village which contained around 60 houses, in which people led seemingly regular lives (Farahani et al. 2016; Lev-Tov et al. 2011; Routledge 2000). There was little suggesting social hierarchy, long-distance trade, or other signs indicating anything other than regular Iron Age village life. That is, however, excluding the site ’ s massive forti fi cation structures. KMA is surrounded by a casemate wall, which follows the contours of the promontory the site is situated on (see Fig. 2). The only area of access to the site, from the west, is guarded by a substantial tower overlooking a dry moat. This juxtaposition of a regular village with massive forti fi cations is an enticing

Umm Tawabin is a large fortress (elevation 200 b.m.l.) strategically situated on top of a mountain overlooking the northern Wadi ʿArabah in Jordan. The site comprises a citadel with the remains of a fort (Fort A), as well as three collapsed stone buildings (Forts B–D), over one hundred circular stone enclosures, a dam, road and quarry all spread across an area 880 by 450 m in size that is fortified by a 2.5 km long casemate wall. Umm Tawabin had not been fully investigated since it was discovered in the late 19th century by a Palestine Exploration Fund (PEF) expedition (Abujaber and Cobbing 2005, 36–38, Hart 1885, 266, Hull 1889, 121, Kitchener 1883, 216–17) until the Ghor as-Safi Project survey (Ariotti 2017) and excavations (Ariotti 2021; Politis and Ariotti 2020), co-sponsored by the PEF and with permission from the Jordanian Department of Antiquities (DoAJ excavation permits 2015/1, 2017/1 and 2018/1) that have addressed questions concerning the extent, function (or multiple functions) and dating of the site for the first time.
