ASOR ANNUAL MEETING

SAMUEL WOLFF

FELLOWSHIP SPOTLIGHT

ASOR is pleased to announce that three scholars — Dr. Lesley Gregoricka of the Department of Sociology, Anthropology, & Social Work at the University of South Alabama; Dr. Gina Konstantopoulos, a Visiting Assistant Professor at the Institute for the Study of the Ancient World at New York University; and Dr. Samuel R. Wolff, of the Israeli Antiquities Authority — are the inaugural recipients of ASOR’s Study of Collections Fellowships.

These fellowships provide $2,000 to each recipient to support the study of collections, including museum and archival collections, repositories, or collections of national authorities. The fellowship funds may be used to support the recipient’s travel to the collection and per diem expenses.

Dr. Samuel R. Wolff will use the Study of Collections award to study the archival materials of Alan Rowe’s 1934 excavation at Tel Gezer, a small-scale excavation that has never been fully published. The materials Wolff will study (field notes, photographs, and plans) are housed in the archives of the Palestine Exploration Fund in London; he has already been able to examine the artifactual materials and registry of finds housed in the Rockefeller Museum in Jerusalem. Dr. Wolff’s goal is then to publish his results in the final report of the current Tandy Museum Excavation Project at Tel Gezer, of which Dr. Wolff is co-director. As Dr. Wolff notes in his application, “The main importance of this small excavation is that the majority of finds date . . . to the Early Bronze Age IB” (by Dr. Wolff’s reckoning), a period that is otherwise barely known from Gezer.

ASOR is pleased to support these three fine projects, and we look forward to awarding more Study of Collections Fellowships to our members in 2018! Keep an eye out for information on Dr. Gina Konstantopoulos and check out the Dr. Gregoricka’s spotlight page.
