Book review: The Ituraeans and the Roman Near East: reassessing the sources

The Ituraeans inhabited areas of present-day Syria / Palestine in the late 1st century BCE. Elaine Myer's book challenges the view of the Ituraeans as tribes of bandits and reinterprets the archaeological evidence to give a more balanced view.

Mark Chaney of the Southern Methodist University (Dallas, Texas) reviews the book in Review of Biblical Literature.
