Gezer Excavations 2007

The Star-Telegram has a brief article on the recent season of excavations at Gezer.  The main finds mentioned are walls burned by the Assyrians in the 8th century and a rare silver coin from the Ptolemaic period.  The excavation project is described at gezerproject.org, and some general information and pictures of Gezer is available at BiblePlaces.com.
