Houses, lamps, and bronze tools emerge along with Hebrew inscriptions proving old Hebrew use, as over 100 workers dig at five sites. Prof Yellin plans winter work to deepen material for pre Israelite and Canaanite studies.

Doctors and Disease. No man fe a good physician wt has never been sick
An OCR fragment remarks that no man can be a good physician without having been ill. The wording is archaic and part of a broader aphorism about medical wisdom arising from personal illness. The piece offers a brief, quotable thought rather than a reported event.
