Summary: | This article presents and discusses 7 sealings, representing 16 of the 22 inscribed sealings found in the Hellenistic Administrative Building excavated at Kedesh. These sealings comprise most of the nonprivate, official sealings discovered. The sealings derive from floor levels damaged and abandoned shortly after the middle of the second century B. C. E. The archive of documents to which these sealings were attached appears to have been in existence for roughly half a century. Some of the inscribed sealings refer to the Phoenician coastal cities of Tyre and Sidon, and one carries the name of the site itself. |
