The Temple Mount Sifting Project is funded! For now.

THE TEMPLE MOUNT SIFTING PROJECT BLOG: Thank You!
We did it! Thanks to our three benefactors donors who setup the matching fund, and to all our supporters through our crowdfunding website, we’ve managed to secure our budget for the rest of 2018 and the beginning of 2019. This will allow us to continue the research, complete several research topics and send more articles for publication.

We are thrilled by the support we received from many return donors. This continual support really means a lot and encourages us to keep on going.

This is very good news. That said, they still need money to complete the project (which they estimate involves five more years of work) and to publish their findings. There is still hope that the Israeli Government will help. I very much encourage them to do so.
