All of the photographs on this page were taken on archaeological excavations in Israel. Students enrolled in my Archaeology 300 summer course dig with me in partial fulfillment of the course requirements. If you are interested in participating in an archaeological excavation, contact me about the Tel el-Faráh project in Israel.
