摘要在青铜时代中期（MB）II时期（约。公元前1750-1600年），泰勒卡布里位于以色列加利利西部，是一个繁荣的政体的中心，与埃及，塞浦路斯和爱琴海有经济和文化联系。虽然卡布里和一些邻近的遗址已被部分挖掘，但政体的兴起和衰落尚未得到清楚的了解。我们目前的证据，从卡布里考古项目（KAP）重建移动定居模式，人口统计，以及贸易方面的卡布里腹地从MB I到青铜时代（LB）I。我们认为，卡布里，在北方的一部分，雅科平原，遵循不同的发展轨迹比雅科及其腹地的平原南部的网站。Acco在MB I早期就城市化了，并发展了一个成熟的腹地，贯穿MB II和LB I。卡布里没有开始开花，直到晚在MB I时期。它在MB II期间的迅速崛起伴随着远离政体中心的村庄遗址的放弃和附近定居点的防御工事。这些巩固权力和维持商品流入中心的努力并没有持续很长时间，卡布里的政体很快就崩溃了。
Abstract During the Middle Bronze Age (MB) II period (ca. 1750–1600 B.C.), Tel Kabri, located in the western Galilee, Israel, was the center of a thriving polity with economic and cultural connections to Egypt, Cyprus, and the Aegean. While Kabri and some neighboring sites have been partially excavated, the rise and fall of the polity has not been clearly understood. We present evidence from the Kabri Archaeological Project (KAP) to reconstruct shifting settlement patterns, demography, and aspects of trade in the Kabri hinterland from MB I to Late Bronze Age (LB) I. We argue that Kabri, in the northern part of the Acco plain, follows a different developmental trajectory than does the site of Acco and its hinterland in the southern part of the plain. Acco was urbanized early in MB I and developed a mature hinterland that persisted throughout MB II and into LB I. Kabri did not begin to bloom until late in the MB I period. Its rapid rise during MB II was accompanied by the abandonment of village sites far from the center of the polity and the fortification of nearby settlements. These efforts to consolidate power and to maintain the flow of goods into the center did not last long, and the polity of Kabri soon collapsed.
