June 2009 Excavation
Our recently completed spring excavation, May 28 through June 20, 2009, was very successful. Excavation was done in Pablo’s area called The Village, Avner’s area above the Ritual Bath and Olive Press and Mical’s area above the Large Columbarium. Significant archaeology discoveries were made. In additions, with the help of our new Bobcat and conveyor belt system a substantial amount of dirt and rocks were removed from the Large Columbarium. See pictures from the excavation on our Photos page. We had a professional photographer on site for a few days–some of his pictures are included in the Photos page others will be included in our Site Guide which will be published by the end of the summer. Our next formal excavation will be in October and November 2009. If you are interested in participating please contact us.
