English summary: The first catalogue volume of the Corpus der Stempelsiegel-Amulette aus Palastina/Israel, published in 1997, was enthusiastically received by many reviewers. With this volume sigillography truly enters a new era (A. Lemaire, Biblical Archaeology Review). The importance of this work is cannot be overestimated. Whole fields of scholarship now have a new and solid foundation for further research (W.E. Aufrecht, Catholic Biblical Quarterly). The Catalogue presents by far the biggest number of such objects from legal excavations. The presentation, description and interpretation are of an unsurpassable standard. (O. Loretz, Ugarit-Forschungen). Volume I presented 2139 stamp-seal amulets from 22 sites (names beginning with A). This volume includes 1224 objects from 45 sites (B-E). The ten most important provenances are Beth Shean (255), Beth Shemesh (228), Deir el-Balah (140), Tell Beit Mirsim (105), Ekron (71), Wadi ed-Daliyeh (70), Dor (61), Dan (41), Dotan (41) und En-Samiyeh (34). While volume I offered mainly material from the Middle Bronze Age often not very spectacular form an iconographic point of view, this volume deals primarily with Late Bronze and Iron Age glyptics. At the most productive sites, Beth Shean and Beth Shemesh, 80 % of the material is dated to the Late Bronze Age or later periods. Deir el-Balah and Dotan yielded almost exclusively Late Bronze material, Wadi ed-Daliyeh objects from the Persian period. In terms of provenance, too, volume II comes closer to biblical contexts. Place like Beersheba, Bethel, Beth Shean, Beth Shemesh, Beth Zur, Dan, Dor, Ekron and Ein Gedi are well-known from biblical texts. This volume presents indispensable source material not only for the archaeology of Palestine/Israel, the history of the southern Levant and Egyptology, but for biblical scholarship as well. The material is documented in photographs, drawings and detailed descriptions. Parallels are provided in a more systematic way, which allows to situate each project in a precise chronological and cultural context.

Aufrecht, Catholic Biblical Quartely). Der Katalog bietet die mit Abstand grosste Zahl solcher Objekte aus legalen Grabungen. Prasentation, Beschreibung und Deutung der Stucke setzen einen unuberbietbaren Massstab (O. Loretz, Ugarit-Forschung). In Band I wurden 2139 Objekte von 22 Fundorten (Ortsnamen, die mit A beginnen) publiziert. Der vorliegende Band veroffentlicht 1224 Stempelsiegel von 45 Fundorten (B-E). Die zehn ergiebigsten sind Bet-Schean (255), Bet-Schemesch (228), Deir el-Balah (140), Bet-Mirsim (105), Ekron (74), Wadi ed-Dalije (70), Dor (61), Dan (41), Dotan (41) und En-Samije (34). Wahrend in Band I mehrheitlich mittelbronzezeitliches, ikonographisch oft wenig ergiebiges Material anfiel, dominieren in Band II spatbronze- und eisenzeitliche Stucke. Bei den materialreichsten Orten Bet-Schean und Bet-Schemesch sind 80% spatbronzezeitlich oder junger; Deir el-Balah imd Dotan lieferten fast ausschliesslich spatbronzezeitliches, Wadi ed-Dalije perserzeitliches Material. Aber nicht nur zeitlich, auch geographisch steht das Fundmaterial von Band II dem biblischen Raum naher als das in Band I prasentierte. Orte wie Berscheeba, Bet-El, Bet-Schean, Bet-Schemesch, Bet-Zur, Dan, Dor, Ekron und En-Gedi sind aus biblischen Schriften bestens bekannt. Dieser Band liefert deshalb nicht nur fur die Archaologie Palastina/Israels, die Geschichte der sudlichen Levante und die Agyptologie, sondern auch fur die Bibelwissenschaft unersetzliches Quellenmaterial. Diese wird durch Fotos und Zeichnungen sowie ei
