Excellent to its time

This is an excellent guide to the archeology of Israel. However the volume chronicles the work and findings only until 1974. It does not for instance cover the controversial destruction of antiquities that has been done by the Islamic Wafq on the Temple Mount, an archaeological scandal of the first- rank which for political reasons has not been given sufficient media coverage. This volume does however record the story of some of the most world- renowned archaeological discoveries, including that of the Dead Sea Scrolls.
