Today I received the final published pdf of a joint article that was written about the Late Bronze Age building that we excavated in Area E (supervised by Itzik Shai and J. Uziel). In this very interesting paper, we discuss the building, related finds and most importantly, we attempt to define the function of the building and the social status of its occupants.
Here’s the full reference:
