This book, the latest in a series of excavation reports from the ancient site of Tell Taannek, examines an Iron Age Cultic Structure and its contents. Frick explores the question of how one might, on the basis of archaeological data, determine the likelihood that a structure had a cultic function. He considers the relationship between cultic and secular' activity, particularly with regard to the ways in which cult served a regulatory function within society. He also examines the question of popular' religious practice in ancient Israel, making reference to biblical passages concerning cultic activity. The book includes the standard catalogue of artefacts, grouped by material, and 5 appendices with sections drawings and tables describing the type and location of all registered artefacts
