Given that Myers seems much more interested in deconstructing modern arguments about the Ituraeans than in a nuanced analysis of the primary sources, I have to wonder if there is not more than can be said. Those two concerns aside, Myers's critical analysis of modern scholarship about the Ituraeans is sweeping and tenacious. She problematizes a simple relationship, often repeated in the literature, which has been assumed to exist between a specific body of ceramics and a people group.
She dismantles the arguments that the Ituraeans were of Arab origin or were a nation of thieves, robbers, and brigands. It has also resulted in a book-length conversation among those who have studied the Ituraeans that is guided by Myers's truly commendable interdisciplinary vision of how the question of Ituraean identity should be attacked.
This diversity of inquiry is one of Myers's greatest contributions.
Rather than searching for the Ituraeans only in inscriptions from the southern Levant, she has cast a wide net and compiled a list of Roman military inscriptions related to the Ituraean units from as far away as Gaul. And although there are only two Ituraean coins from known archaeological contexts, she has successfully gleaned information about the Ituraean principality from those in private collections.
Those looking for a survey of Ituraean material culture and primary texts including coins and inscriptions , or those wanting an up-to-date history of scholarship on this enigmatic people, would do well to consult Myers's wide-ranging yet comprehensive study.
