For those interested, we are offering the public an opportunity to own the “limited edition” 2007 season shirts and hats.
The dig shirts are cotton t-shirts with the symbol of the Tell es-Safi/Gath Archaeological Project on the front left-hand chest, and a picture of a LB figurine surrounded by an inscribed text in Hebrew and English is on the back. Shirts are available in the following sizes: S, M, L, XL, XXL, XXXL (we suggest that you get your shirt one size above what you usually wear – in case of shrinkage).
Here is Eric Welch modelling the back of the t-shirt.
The shirts come in several colors: Sun (Chamsin) Yellow, Cloud White, Midnight Black, Pomegranate Red, Sky Blue, Royal Blue (Cobalt), Ash (or Hearth) Gray, Merlot Purple.
See the colors here, along with the dig baseball cap with the dig symbol in front.
Prices (including postage and handling):
Shirt: $15 (all sizes)
Hat: $10 (one size fits all)
If you are interested in purchasing the shirts and/or hats, please send your order to:
Prof. Aren Maeir
Institute of Archaeology
Bar-Ilan University
Ramat-Gan, 52900 ISRAEL
Please make out checks only to: The Israel Exploration Society
