This shaft was recently excavated and can be seen on the east side of Jerusalem today.

The last of the early Bronze Age walls of Jericho were built in a great hurry using old and broken bricks and were probably not completed before it was destroyed by fire.

Excellent. Would recommend to all who wish to see how the Bible matches up with history.
Yes. It was interesting to know the sites that have been excavated and thought to be the different cities mentioned in the Bible.
