Ένα ισραηλιτικό ιερό του 11ου αι. π.Χ. / An Israelite cult shrine of the 11th c. BCE

Στη διάρκεια των ανασκαφών στην τοποθεσία Tel Beth-Shemesh αρχαιολόγοι του Πανεπιστημίου του Tel Aviv έφεραν στο φως ένα ενδιαφέρον ιερό που χρονολογείται στον 11ο αι. π.Χ. Σύμφωνα με τους αρχαιολόγους πρόκειται για αρχαίο ισραηλιτικό ιερό, το οποίο, ωστόσο, κάποια στιγμή πέρασε στα χέρια των Φιλισταίων και σύμφωνα με τα αρχαιολογικά ευρήματα καταστράφηκε και βεβηλώθηκε. Πιθανόν ο χώρος ξαναχρησιμοποιήθηκε αργότερα ως ιερός.
Το εύρημα θα παρουσιασθεί αργότερα αυτόν το μήνα στην ετήσια συνάντηση των American Schools of Oriental Research (Chicago).
