More on Huqoq at the Yigal Allon Center Museum

EXHIBITION: A 1,600-year-old Village, a Dazzling Mosaic and a New Story of Ancient Judaism. An exhibition near the Sea of Galilee offers a glimpse of Huqoq, the ancient village uncovered in 2011 that has archaeology enthusiasts enthralled. What does its spectacular mosaic reveal about Galilean Judaism – and when will the public finally get to see it? (Moshe Gilad, Haaretz).

An overview of the exhibit, good background on the excavation, and a substantial interview with the chief excavator, Jody Magness. Very informative.

By the way, don't worry about me, I'm fine. I just got distracted with other things for a few days.
