The site is in the West Bank, the ruins are from the Christian period, there is a mosque on the site…wouldn’t it be better if we could find some evidence of a much earlier Jewish presence at the site?<BR/><BR/>I do agree, that unless there is some additional evidence that has not been published, digging there to find evidence of the Ark or the Tabernacle will only destroy one good historic site, with little hope of a discovery that is worth that destruction.Al Sandalowhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07207918547586820754noreply@blogger.com
