Recenzje

The strength of this book is in the presentation of archaeological data and hypotheses in chapters three through five which brings Kenyon's data alongside or sometimes in contrast to conclusions from more recent excavations. ... Overall, this volume is helpful for the reader who wishes to understand what archaeologists have uncovered and what the data means to a present-day understanding of ancient Jerusalem.
