Book Description
Stones and Creed: One Hundred Artefacts from Lebanon's Antiquity represents the efforts of a team of scholars to explore the multimillenary past of Lebanon, one of the cradles of civilization, through a selection of sarcophagi, baetyls, statuettes and other stone treasures that once inhabited our sites and are now gathered in our National Museum.
The distinctive approach of the present volume, and its claim to originality, lies in its exploration of these masterpieces of stone with a view to unlocking aspects of reality, beauty and human nature, and to deciphering the message each object holds, its revelation of a being intertuvined with traces of centuries long past.
Thus deciphered, these objects reveal their humam creators in the full range of their humanity, from their virtually organic origins to the point where they seek to rise above the limits of their condition. Each work reveals man as an individual in close association with a collectivity whose distinctive features, customs, rites and myths are laid bare.
This volume reflects the joint efforts of the Lebanese British Friends of the National Museum, the Directorate General of Antiquities and the Fondation Nationale du Patrimoine, all working to restore the riches of the National Museum.
May this precious work serve as a sourcebook of researchers, a proud addition to every library, public and private, and an inspiration to all those whose growing enthusiasm represents the future of our historical and cultural heritage, the renewal of our past.
