Ce volume presente les premiers resultats des travaux de la mission archeologique syro-francaise de Qinnasrin, effectues sur le site d'al-Hadir (Syrie, region d'Alep), grace aux financements de la commission des fouilles du Ministere des Affaires Etrangeres et Europeennes et du laboratoire " Islam Medieval " de l'UMR Orient & Mediterranee. Al-Hadir a ete, des le VIIe siecle, un hameau dependant de la ville de Qinnasrin, chef-lieu eponyme de la circonscription administrative de la Syrie du Nord. La question de l'identification d'al-Hadir avec la ville de Hadir Qinnasrin evoquee dans les textes medievaux est revue a la lumiere des decouvertes materielles. L'analyse de la topographie generale du site et des secteurs fouilles est completee par des contributions des specialistes charges de l'etude du materiel archeologique : ceramique, verre, objets, inscriptions, ossements humains et animaux. Ces etudes offrent des informations rares et inedites pour la connaissance de la culture materielle des debuts de l'epoque islamique.

Late Hittite Emar examines the economic and juridical texts from ancient Emar (modern Tell Meskene-Qadime) with a basically threefold task in view. The first is to discern the chronological span of the texts, and then using the political information of the texts to correlate the kings of Emar with the known kings of Karkemish in the thirteenth century B.C. The conclusion is that Emar fell to invaders considerably earlier than most have supposed to date. The second task looks at various aspects of Emar's social history, in particular whether the ilku-system operated there as at Ugarit, and more than thirty texts which attest both sale of family members and real estate "in a time of distress" (i.e. famine). It appears that Emar was left largely to run its own affairs under the Hittite aegis. Meanwhile, two leading families at Emar largely controlled the traffic in humanity, one being the entrenched clan of diviner-priests. The final section examines the attestation of Emar in earlier texts, from Ebla to Idri-mi, and concludes that there was no previous history of kingship at Emar. A text from the palace corpus which mentions an attempted coup d'État against one of the Emarite kings receives close analysis, while the final chapter attempts an identification of the possible agents of Emar's destruction, with a particular focus on Aramaean activity in the region.
