Since its establishment in 1948, Israel has become a center for archaeology in the Middle East. Whether its Canaanite, Israelite, Philistine, Judean, Greek, Roman, or Muslim, Israeli archaeology is shedding more light on the secrets of the past and often reshaping what we thought we knew. In this course, you will master core Hebrew vocabulary needed to read and watch Hebrew media on archaeology and archaeological digs in Israel. The lessons in the first installment of this course cover the excitement of becoming an archaeologist, taking a look at a coin from the Bar Kochba Revolt, discovering a seal from the First Temple era in Jerusalem, excavating a 1,000-year-old eggplant, and deciphering a name found on an ancient bowl in Jerusalem.
