By tightly defining the term dolmen itself, this book brings these mysterious monuments into sharper focus. Drawing on historical, archaeological and geological sources, it shows that the dolmens mostly concentrate in the eastern escarpment of the Jordan Rift Valley and in the Galilean hills and near proto-urban settlements of the Early Bronze I period. Dolmens in the Levant is essential for anyone interested in the rise of civilisations in the ancient Middle East, and particularly those who have wondered at the origins of these enigmatic burial monuments that dominate the landscape.
James A. Fraser was awarded his PhD at the University of Sydney, Australia, for his thesis on Levantine dolmens in 2016.

He has worked on archaeological projects in Jordan, Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Uzbekistan, Kashmir, Greece, Cambodia, Australia and the Solomon Islands. He currently directs the Khirbet Ghozlan Excavation Project, investigating the production of olive oil in Jordan around 2000 BCE.
