Pictures of Dig Life

One of the most familiar figures on site throughout the season is the dig photographer. Their job is a particularly busy one. The photographer not only takes field and object shots but also people shots during the course of the season. We've  started combing through those photos and we're going to share some of what we find this offseason. Recognize yourself? Let us know!

With all this looking back, it's important to remember we are also looking forward. We have one more season of excavation. Consider joining us in 2016 as we bring the excavation phase of the  Leon Levy Expedition to Ashkelon project to a close. It promises to be an amazing season.
