    Abstract:
    This study reexamines the form and character of the Gezer 'calendar' inscription, examines the text's structural affinities to the list of times in Ecc 3 and demonstrates how the Gezer inscription is, itself, a combination of two incompatible ways of giving an ordered structure to time.
