| Summary: | The ostracon published here was found in a stronghold of the Persian period in the northern Negev. The language of the ostracon is Aramaic, and it is associated contextually with a large corpus of ostraca believed to come from, or are related to, Khirbet el-Kôm, a site identified by many as biblical Maqqedah, a name recorded in the present ostracon. The ostracon is a receipt for a large quantity of barley that Zaydiʾel son of Qos c any, most probably a resident of our site, deposited in the storehouse of Maqqedah. |
