ISRAELI ARCHAEOLOGIST ISRAEL FINKELSTEIN is sharing a �522,000 "Dan David prize" with British archaeologist Graeme Barker. The prize has "past, present, and future time dimensions" and, of course, their share is for the "past" component.

Congratulations to both archaeologists, as well as to director Peter Brook, who won the "present" component. No word on the "future time dimension" winner.
