1st thing Palestinians in #Jericho woke up to was dozens of #Israeli soldiers in armored vehicles & bulldozers raiding the Aqabat Jabr refugee camp & wreaking havoc!

14 Palestinians wounded; multiple homes & cars damaged; multiple young Palestinians kidnapped without charge...
2\ Eyewitnesses say #Israeli soldiers bombed a Palestinian civilian's house with a rocket then bulldozed parts of it around 7:00AM in #Jericho's Aqabat Jabr refugee camp.

Jericho has been under blockade for 8 days.
3\ The neighbor living next to the targeted house said he woke up to #Israeli bombs & shootings around 5:30AM, then bulldozing started at 7:00AM

They weren't allowed to flee. "If you dare look out of a window, you'd get shot"

He smuggled his kids to safety out of a back window

Maybe fuelled by recent claims that #Neolithic hunters were too "simple" and thus not capable of cultural achievements, there seems to be a misunderstanding about the "#pottery" part in #PrePotteryNeolithic (PPN).

They actually *did* use vessels. Just other vessels.

A short 🧵: Illustration of a Neolithic house with a woman sitting on th
Well known and clearly associated with #PrePotteryNeolithic contexts are e.g. #StoneVessels from different places like #KörtikTepe in Turkey or #JerfElAhmar and #TellAbr in Syria as well as (often fragmented though) many more related sites (including Göbekli Tepe by the way).

Bringing up the #GöbekliTepe fragments since they illustrate why finding complete vessels is comparably rare: the material was too valuable to not re-use it.

@lauradietrich_, @odietrich_, & myself discussed the "afterlife" of such #StoneVessels here:

#HumanAnimalEntanglement. - Today: "The Curious Case of the #Dancing #Cranes".

1/ Among the many naturalistic animal depictions at early #Neolithic #GöbekliTepe in southeastern Turkey there are some bird depictions with suspiciously odd legs ...
2/ Generally, birds seem to take up a noteworthy role in the iconography at #GöbekliTepe (and other related #Neolithic sites).

The #cranes mentioned above in particular stand out due rather muscular legs and what seems a more human-like #anatomy, including 'knees' and 'toes'.
3/ Do these #crane representations evoke the impression of #masked people?

Yet it was suggested that this even could be more than simple #masquerade: The visualisation of a transformation into the animal itself in the course of #shamanistic rituals?
