Response to Erickson-Gini’s “Problems and solutions in dating Nabataean pottery in the post-annexation period”

Summary/Abstract: In the late 1990s, Stephan G. Schmid published a chronological typology of Nabataean Painted Fine Ware (NPFW) that was widely accepted by scholars of Nabataea and Roman Arabia. Tali Erickson-Gini has since raised concerns about parts of his NPFW typology, specifically related to two decoration types dating to the end of the 1st century and the beginning of the 2nd century CE (Dekorphases 3b and 3c). This article is a response to Erickson-Gini’s critique, published in this volume. We find that there is sufficient evidence to broadly validate Schmid’s proposed dating for the beginning of production of Dekorphases 3b and 3c to the late 1st century and early 2nd century CE, respectively
