"This is what archaeologists have learned from their excavations in the Land of Israel: the Israelites were never in Egypt, did not wander in the desert, did not conquer the land in a military campaign and did not pass it on to the 12 tribes of Israel. Perhaps even harder to swallow is the fact that the united monarchy of David and Solomon, which is described by the Bible as a regional power, was at most a small tribal kingdom."
Fascinating. And the way you put the slideshow together is good. One thing in particular are the cartoon type graphics at the start that explain what a tel is - I guess it's the way my mind works but that really helps me understand it. Looked like the project was a lot of fun.
