Get Started

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 second installment of this course cover a closer look at the Philistines, Jerusalem’s city wall from the 70 AD siege, a Roman theater, and the historical background of Hannukah.
