Earthen traditions are far too valuable to dismiss as irrelevant to the modern world and indeed future generations, they must remain as an example to the caring and ecologically aware architects and builders that are emerging around the world. (…) This European Union Project, and this book, have been achieved through a successful co-operation between the University of Florence, several European Universities and Institutions and the General Directorate of Antiquities and Museums in Syria, adds a valuable window, shedding light on the northern Syria tradition of striking domed houses. The ICOMOS Scientific Committee for Earthen Architectural Heritage applauds and encourages such excellent publications in the search for an accurate and useable worldwide typology and description of earthen buildings. This book contributes a great deal to these goals. John Hurd, President of ICOMOS International Scientific Committee for Earthen Architecture, Lincolnshire, Great Britain. Earthen architecture has very deep roots in the Syrian tradition. Excavations of ancient times have shown that in Mureybet, a Neolithic site in the middle valley of the Euphrates, the population used earth in combination with pebbles and elements of wood and straw to build the oldest type of circular houses of the region and probably in the world. (…) The discussion on earthen architecture and dome construction is thus becoming evermore fascinating and the several Syrian and European teams mentioned in this volume confirm that this system has a particular presence in our architecture, presenting us with the opportunity to work towards the most effective methods for its conservation. Michel Al-Maqdisi, Directorate General of Antiquities and Museums DGAM - Ministry of Culture, Damascus, Syria.

Summary: Ce troisième ouvrage de la série " Conquête de la steppe " présente de nouvelles études d'archéologie et de géoarchéologie issues d'un important programme de prospection de la zone steppique de la Syrie septentrionale et centrale à l'est de Hama. S'y ajoute la publication d'une prospection géographique de la région de Pétra en Jordanie. Les périodes dont il est question ici vont du milieu de l'âge du Fer au début de l'Islam (IXe s. av. J.-C. - IXe s. ap. J.-C.). Qu'il s'agisse de l'architecture byzantine en terre, des conquêtes successives des steppes par les agriculteurs, de la diffusion en Syrie des techniques d'irrigation par les canaux souterrains (qanats), des modes de sédentarisation des nomades, de monuments et d'inscriptions inédits - dont un texte louvite - ou de la vie rurale dans les villages antiques, ce volume apporte des informations nouvelles qui modifient notre connaissance de l'histoire de la mise en valeur du Proche-Orient ancien.
