AB This study investigates the cultural ethos of Galilee. Much of the current discussion is still dominated by essentialist(theological) terms, and an effort is made to promote the use of historical and archaeological evidence and concepts. Both 'Hellenised' and 'cosmopolitan' are inappropriate descriptionptions for the major centres of Galilee. Far from suggesting cultural continuity, the evidence for the time of Jesus indicates sustained tension and even overt conflict between cities and the Galilean peasantry.
