Duke Volunteers Survey Excavations Of Three Summers In Galilee
Duke Volunteers led by Professor Eric Meyers surveyed three summers of digging at Khirbet Shema in northern Israel's upper Galilee near Meron. The team documented a major fourth century synagogue with a two stage bema, frescoed chamber, genizah, mikveh, two ton doorway lintels, a seven branch menorah, and carved Roman eagle motifs, along with coins, jewelry, cisterns, granaries, and domestic remains.
