Summary
Going against the present consensus, Izaak J. de Hulster proves in this work that there were figurines in Achaemenid (Persian) period Jerusalem. Some scholars have linked the purported absence of figurines with monotheism; his thesis therefore has implications for Israel's history of religion after the exile.
