Our man in the ground

Chris on site at Tel Hadid

I have just returned from an archaeological excavation in Israel. Brushing off the dust, it has been another reminder of just how much ongoing work is continuing to reveal life in Biblical times to us.

The site I was involved in this year, Tel Hadid, occupies a prominent place overlooking the main coastal highway used throughout history to travel between Africa and Asia.

Interpretation of what is being found at Tel Hadid will be a careful process and awaits peer-reviewed publication. However, I can tell you that impressive stone walls, sling stones and arrow heads will all testify to an important period of Biblical history when Judah was attacked by the Babylonian empire.
