In this book, one of the builders of the walls (a Tekoite) leads us around the city and shows us the great work accomplished in those stirring times. Profusely illustrated with photographs of a recently constructed model, the book also contains rare photographs of archaeological remains extant from the period.

He has been involved in all of Jerusalem’s major excavations, producing site plans and reconstruction drawings for all of them. He now teaches Ancient History, the History of Modern Israel and Hebrew at Heritage College, Adelaide, Australia. Kathleen holds a BA degree in archaeology from University College Dublin and a postgraduate certificate in education. Since 1983 she has been a partner with Leen in their firm, Ritmeyer Archaeological Design, producing educational materials on the subject of biblical archaeology. |
