Building upon her work in IPIAO (Die Ikonographie Palästinas/Israels und der Alte Orient. Eine Religionsgeschichte in Bildern, 4 volumes, see footnote 1), the author tries here to relate several recognizable developments in the iconography of the Early Iron Age to the theme of the conference. Iconography is not able to answer the question of whether state formation began in the 10th century BCE. It does indicate, however, that during the 11th and beginning of the 10th centuries BCE the dominant Egyptian influence was on the decline, and other traditions came to prominence: from the north, Syrian influences, and in some places sub-Mycenaean influences. Above all, however, the autochthonous Canaanite heritage experienced a revival, developing new themes and using new media.
