RESEARCH RECORD
Elie Haddad and Alexander Glick examine the archaeological sequence of Jaffa harbor from the Byzantine period to the modern era.
This record provides bibliographic details and independent reading notes. The full study was written by the authors listed in the publication details; the link leads to its source.
Salvage excavations identified harbor seawalls and wharf remains, including Crusader, Ottoman and Mandate phases. The authors propose that westward movement of the seawalls reduced the anchorage area. 1.
A harbor wall is more than a boundary on a plan: it belongs to a system of shore, water, access and work. Read each construction phase separately and examine how it connects to finds in fills or use surfaces. This distinguishes repair of an installation from a change in its function.
The archaeological-layers guide explains cuts, fills and reuse. The original study provides plans and find details needed to assess the harbor’s development.

RESEARCH & METHOD
