This volume, Alalakh and its Neighbours, represents the resultsof the symposium held in honour of the fifteenth anniversary of renewedexcavations at Tell Atchana (Alalakh). It brings together results ofongoing interdisciplinary research projects conducted by the large anddiverse Tell Atchana team with reflections on Alalakh's connections toits wider social and geographical setting as discussed in thecontributions of scholars working at nearby sites in Anatolia, Syria, and the Aegean. The papers here look both inward towards resolvinglingering questions from Sir Leonard Woolley's original excavations atthe site, as well as new questions that have come up in the renewedexcavations concerning life at Alalakh, and outward toward the city'splace in a regional context. Covering chronological issues, textualevidence, scientific analyses, and a wide range of material culture(including especially ceramics, metals, stone, and glass), this volumeencompasses the recent results of work at this important secondmillennium BC site.
