Stepped pools, chalk vessels, and ritual purity

BIBLE HISTORY DAILY: Archaeology and Jewish Purity Practices. Testimony of Stepped Pools and Chalk Vessels (Marek Dospěl). This essay summarizes two BAR articles, one by Cecilia Wassén in 2019 and the other by Yonatan Adler in the current issue. Both articles are behind the subscription wall.

I have noted another essay by Dr. Adler on the same subject here.
