A combination of historical research and fieldwork are used in this study of changing patterns of social and economic development in the Jordan Valley from AD1250 to AD1914. A historical framework and background information on the geology, geography and ecology of the region are supplemented by excavations at the site of Dhra' el-Khan and the results of archaeological survey by the eastern Jordan Valley Survey Project. Evidence of settlement patterns and occupation density, material culture and especially pottery and small find assemblages, are finally brought together in a historical overview of the period.
