The discovery of the 17,000 tablets at the late third millennium BC Syrian site of Ebla revolutionised the study of the ancient Near East. Using a regional landscape approach, the 30 contributions to this volume examine Ebla in its regional context through lenses of archaeological, textual, biological, materials and remote sensing analysis, among others.
