Eve Harow visits the Israel branch of the Oklahoma based Armstrong Institute to talk with archaeologist Brent Nagtegaal about their work digging in Jerusalem.
They have the personal libraries of the late, great archaeologist Dr. Eilat Mazar and her grandfather Benjamin, with whom they found many important artifacts over the decades. The last week has been full of news reports of incredible discoveries, including a Great Revolt half shekel coin they excavated in the Ophel just south of the Temple Mount. Archaeology is getting more interesting and multi-disciplinary by the dig; nowhere is it more exciting than in our ancient capital.
