Document Details : Title: Les poids phéniciens pyramidaux en plomb Subtitle: Une mise au point Author(s): ELAYI, Josette , ELAYI, Alain G. Journal: Semitica Volume: 67 Date: 2025 Pages: 135-139 DOI: 10.2143/SE.67.0.3295726 Abstract : The identification of Phoenician pyramidal lead weights was challenged by R. Kettler, who suggested that they are sinkers used by fishermen. His arguments and observations are not convincing. Some of these weights may have been reused as sinkers, but they were first used as pyramidal lead weights. The discovery of more items would be helpful in order to refine their metrological study. |
