Under the title “A New Approach to Study Archaeological Texts,” researcher Khaled Hussein Ayoub discussed in his book the definition of tangible and spiritual heritage as the tangible archaeological finds buried under the ground must be integrated, according to the author, with what is buried in our souls in terms of folk tales, rituals, songs, and customs.
In his book, the writer believed that a structural cultural unity is supposed to be formed between what souls aspire to and what is found on the earth of antiquities, so that each of them constitutes a key to the other, and through them the civilized activities to which we belong appear.
Researcher Ayoub identified in his book the poetic structure that was sequenced over time with inscriptions found according to style and content, thus forming many cultural archeological structures such as lyrical and popular poetry that possesses real cultural foundations and structures.
He pointed out that Israel controlled the Jerusalem Museum and the manuscripts stored inside in addition to the sites of the exploratory missions in the West Bank and the occupied Syrian Golan.
In the book, the researcher reviewed the movement of ancient nations, the methodology of archeology in addition to the models of archaeological inscriptions, and poetic texts that were affected and compatible with antiquities.
The 114-page book , which was printed by Dar Canaan for Studies, is a variety of viewpoints concerning studying ancient archaeological texts in the book.
