Gal Avraham, who is writing his PhD on a GIS spatial analysis of the finds from the Iron Age IIA finds from Area A, took some very nice fotos of the excavation in Area A this season, and merged them together to make two very nice panoramic shots of the excavation in progress.
Here they are:
The first one is a view of Area A from the north, looking south. Just beyond Area A, in the background you can see the breakfast and logistics area.
The 2nd shot is of Area A, looking more or less northeast, with the hill of the western Shephelah (Judean Foothills) in the background.
You get a nice feeling of the work in Area A.
