NEW SEGMENT: "NO TURNING BACK" with Prof. Tom Levy
"There is no Turning Back!" Prof. Thomas Levy, UCSD, says the trowel and a good eye are no longer enough in the field. Tom rode the wave of an immense California investment in technology applied to Hirbet en-Nahas in Jordan. The kicker is, unexpectedly, his excavations showed a rise of copper industrial production in the 10th and 9th centuries BCE, with a falling off in the 8th. This may be in conflict with the Low Chronology, requiring a new look at the textual and archaeological interface, about which he has written and edited a book. Everyone is talking about his work and its implications - hear Prof Levy himself! (Barnea overloaded his circuits here in the late night Skype recording, he was so fascinated, pardon him…). You can find his book Historical Biblical Archaeology and the Future: The New Pragmatism on Amazon or by clicking here. ***
