Just Past? (eBook, ePUB)

The Making of Israeli Archaeology

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book tells the story of the creation of Israeli Archaeology in the 1950s and early 1960s. Unlike other books on the archaeology of the 'holy-land', it isn't just a chronological parade of important excavations and nice finds, but a history of intrigues, budgets, failures and, above all, dreams.
