A Time of Change (2007) is a volume edited by Yigal Levin.

Abstract

"A Time of Change examines the changes that occurred in the Land of Israel during the Persian and early Hellenistic periods, from the sixth through the fourth centuries BCE. A major focus of several of the papers is the examination of different aspects of the newly published 'Makkedah ostraca' and their meaning. By collecting this research in a single volume it is possible for the reader to obtain an overview of the situation during these periods in question, which in turn enables comparison with preceding and subsequent periods. For clarity, the studies are divided into three categories: archaeological, epigraphic and historical, though many of them operate on a more interdisciplinary level. "--Publisher description.
