#Christianity #MiddleEast #NearEast
I spent five years visiting the different Christian communities of the Middle East and I can say with authority that your conclusions are way off, and reek of ignorance about the way Christian and Muslim communities in the Middle East coexist. Murderous Islamist are certainly there, in the same way murderous gunmen exist in the US, regularly shooting down school kids; but to claim they are the norm is simply to show you actually know nothing about this world.
We're currently attending the ASOR Annual Meeting in Boston, USA!
Discover these titles and more at our booth in collaboration with @isdistribution. We look forward to seeing you there! 👋

Despite many archaeologists conducting research and proposing theories over the years, these mysterious desert structures are unknown in many respects. #DesertKites (as they were dubbed by the French and British pilots that flew over the #NearEast during the early #TwentiethCentury) are mega-constructions that generally consist of two long walls converging upon an enclosed space that has on its periphery small stone constructions called cells.
It was generally agreed that kites served to gather together animals, but opinions were divided on the question of whether the herds were wild or domestic. However, recent investigations hypothesise that they were used as pit-traps, incorporating sophisticated hunting techniques to lure animals into large pits.
The dating of the kites has also long remained unclear because standard archaeological material (like animal bones and human tools) is absent from the rare excavations of them. However, advances in modern #archaeology mean that some of these kites, such as those in #Armenia and #Jordan, have been dated back to a range of periods including the late #Neolithic, #IronAge, and #BronzeAge.
Many questions still remain. Who were the kite builders? What was their way of life? And how did they interact with the more urbanized population around them?

Since 2018, after I convened & moderated a roundtable @Princeton on #Iran in #NearEast, I have said the country's influence incl. in the Levant was receding, despite pundits taking that influence for granted. I discuss our findings here @cwclub.
