Ramla: City of Muslim Palestine, 715-1917
«
‘Avni offers a dense synthesis of the rich archaeological evidence traced through numerous excavations — these varying in scope and extension — conducted in Ramla over the last 30 years. The picture emerges of an outstanding Islamic city of the 8th–11th centuries, provided with well planned orthogonal streets, with central mosque, and comprising large-scale public infrastructures; residential neighbourhoods with courtyard houses lavishly decorated with mosaics; industrial quarters, especially centred on dyeing; and gardens and complex systems of water supply and storage.’ – Matteo Gioele Randazzo (2022): Medieval Archaeology, 66/1, 2022
