Book excerpt: The important Early Bronze Age site of Bab edh-Dhra, on the lisan near the Dead Sea in Jordan, was first excavated by Paul W. Lapp in the 1960s. The first volume of the Reports of the Expedition described the burial practices and artifacts revealed in the 1965-67 Bab edh-Dhra excavations directed by Lapp. This second volume reports on the four seasons of excavation, from 1975 to 1981, at the town site, directed by Walter E. Rast and R. Thomas Schaub. The stratigraphy and changing architectural practices of five major phases are fully documented and interpreted, with extensive plans and sections.
