Ver Itinerario Y Condiciones Para el próximo mes de agosto he preparado un viaje que nos servirá para conocer en mayor profundidad la rica e interesante historia y arqueología del territorio de Israel. El objetivo es finalizar el viaje con una visión lo más completa posible del legado que las diversas culturas dejaron a su paso por este lugar en los últimos miles de años… más allá, por tanto, del contexto meramente bíblico. Son muchos los sitios y monumentos que vamos a visitar. La arquelogía nos llevará a lugares desarrollados desde el Neolítico hasta la Edad del Hierro. Así, veremos los restos de uno de los asentamientos más antiguos del mundo, Tel el-Sultán en Jericó, que nos remontará mas de diez mil años atrás. En Tel Dan, veremos un acceso a la ciudad de la Edad del Bronce perfectamente conservado; en Tel Hazor la ciudad cananea e israelita; en Beit Shean restos muy diversos, desde cananeos y egipcios faraónicos a la época romana; en Megiddo recordaremos la conquista de Tutmosis III, en Tel Arad descubriremos un antiguo santuario de Yahveh… También nos acercaremos a la época helenística, herodiana y romana en Caesarea Maritima, Paneas, Séforis, Masada, Herodion, Beit Guvrin – Maresha, e incluso visitaremos una importante ciudad de los nabateos, Avdat… El mundo bíblico, vinculado tanto al Antiguo como al Nuevo Testamento inevitablemente siempre estará presente en el paisaje, pero igualmente en sitios como Jerusalén, Belén, Nazaret, Séforis, Cafarnaúm, Qumrán, Monte Carmelo, Monte Tabor, Monasterios de Qurantul y San Jorge en el desierto de Judea… También la época de las cruzadas tendrá protagonismo en sitios como San Juan de Acre, Nimrod junto a los Altos del Golán, Belvoir al sur del Mar de Galilea, en Caesarea Maritima a orillas del Mediterráneo… Y, por supuesto, no faltarán las visitas a parajes e hitos naturales como las Grutas de Rosh Hanikra, el Mar de Galilea, el rio Jordán, el desierto de Judea, las minas de cobre de Timna en el wadi Arava donde incluso veremos los restos de un santuario dedicado a la diosa Hathor e inscripciones de Ramsés III, el espectacular cráter Ramón, los corales en el Mar Rojo, la reserva de Ein Gedi, el Mar Muerto, la reserva de Ein Avdat, el desierto del Negev… ¡Estos y otros lugares constituirán la base de una nueva aventura viajera, esta vez al otro extremo del Mediterráneo! ¿¿¿Te la vas a perder??? 1 - Jueves 1 agosto Vuelo Madrid – Tel Aviv Noche en Tel Aviv 2 – Viernes 2 de agosto Noche en Haifa Comenzamos el día visitando esta histórica y antigua ciudad de Yaffa, que ya es mencionada en las Cartas de Amarna y en un famoso texto que protagoniza un general de Tutmosis III. Pasearemos por su puerto, operativo desde la Edad del Bronce, visitaremos el barrio de los artistas en el casco antiguo y el Monasterio de San Pedro. Puerto de Yaffa Ciudad vieja Abandonamos Yaffa y nos dirigimos 50 km al norte, hacia la antigua Caesarea Maritima, una ciudad portuaria construida por Herodes el Grande entre los años 25 y 13 a. C. y cuyo auge se alcanzó durante las época romana y bizantina. Su puerto, el Sebastos, fue uno de los más importantes de su tiempo (rivalizando con el de Alejandría) y el mayor puerto artificial construido en mar abierto. Aquí visitaremos el acueducto, el teatro e hipódromo romano, ruinas de diversas épocas y la fortaleza de los cruzados. Acueducto romano Restos del hipódromo junto al mar Teatro Ruinas de Caesarea marítima Restos de la época de los cruzados. Entrada de la fortaleza. Terminaremos el día visitando Megiddo, a unos 35 km de Caesarea Maritima. Se trata de uno de los yacimientos más famosos de la antigüedad, especialmente por las numerosas referencias que de él tenemos en época faraónica y por las batallas que hubo por su dominio. Su situación estratégica era muy importante, pues dominaba una vía de comunicación de primer orden en el rico Valle de Jezreel. Recordaremos la célebre conquista de Tutmosis III. Noche en Haifa. El Tell de Megiddo, patrimonio de la Humanidad desde 2005. 3 – Sábado 3 de agosto Noche en Haifa Haifa. Se sitúa a los pies del Monte Carmelo. Comenzamos el día visitando el santuario y jardines Bahai, sede importante del bahaismo, una religión monoteísta cuyos fieles siguen las enseñanzas de Bahá'u'lláh, su profeta y fundador, a quien consideran la manifestación de Dios para la época actual. Jardines Bahai A continuación nos desplazaremos al Monasterio de Nuestra Señora del Monte Carmelo, cuyo más antiguo origen se debe a la comunidad ermitaña que a principios del siglo XIII se conformó en orden religiosa, con un oratorio dedicado a la Virgen Stella Maris. Desde lo alto del Monte Carmelo podremos disfrutar de unas bellas vistas de la bahía de Haifa. Interior de la iglesia Stella Maris A menos de 20 km se encuentra Acre. Esta ciudad fue conquistada por los cruzados en el año 1104, convirtiéndose en el puerto principal del reino de Jerusalén. Nuestra primera visita en esta histórica ciudad será la fortaleza de la Orden de los Hospitalarios. Fortaleza de la Orden de los Hospitalarios de San Juan de Acre Espacio interior de la Fortaleza Túnel de los Templarios Además de la fortaleza hospitalaria Acre nos ofrece muchos otros restos de la época de los cruzados. En especial el túnel de los Templarios, en la ciudad antigua. Estos túneles, que comunicaban con el puerto, tienen 350 metros de longitud, y estuvieron ocultos hasta su descubrimiento en 1994. Khan al-Umdan, con su torre reloj de 1906, conmemorativa de las bodas de plata del sultán Abdul Hamid II Seguiremos disfrutando de Acre visitando el caravanserai Khan al-Umdan, construido en 1784 durante la época otomana. Tiene un gran número de columnas de granito tomadas de Caesarea Maritima, Atlit y de las ruinas de monumentos cruzados de Acre. Para finalizar el día nos desplazaremos 20 km, a la frontera norte de Israel, para visitar las grutas de Rosh Hanikra. Este parque natural tiene acantilados de blanca creta en los que la naturaleza ha excavado grutas y cuevas de atractivo turístico. Si bien antes sólo se podía acceder a ellas desde el mar, actualmente un teleférico facilita el acceso. Grutas y acantilados de Rosh Hanikra. 4 – Domingo 4 de agosto Noche en Tiberíades Partimos hacia los Altos del Golán, donde a 45 km al norte del Mar de Galilea nos espera la fortaleza de Nimrod. La fortaleza, la más grande en Israel, domina un valle profundo y estrecho que separa el monte Hermón del resto de los Altos. Alcanza los 420 metros de longitud y 150 metros de ancho. Fue construida hacia 1229 por un hijo de Saladino, en previsión a los combates contra la sexta cruzada. La fortaleza ayyubida de Nimrod Caesarea Philippi – Paneas Cascada de Banias Finalizada la visita realizaremos una excursión a la antigua Paneas, fundada en época ptolemaica a los pies del Hermón, lugar de culto del dios Pan. Aquí encontramos Caesarea Philippi. En este parque podremos realizar una excursión que tiene como punto final la cascada más alta de Israel. Tel Dan, puerta de la Edad del Bronce Tel Hazor De regreso hacia el sur pasaremos por dos importantes yacimientos arqueológicos. Primero por Tel Dan, donde veremos la conocida popularmente como “Puerta de Abraham”, fechada en 1750 a.C. Después iremos a Tel Hazor, un importante tell cuyos restos arqueológicos son los más grandes y ricos de Israel. Durante el II milenio fue una importante ciudad cananea. Posteriormente, durante la época del reino de Israel, parece que Hazor alcanzó un nuevo clímax bajo los ómridas, si bien hacia el año 732 a.C. fue conquistada y destruida por los asirios. Mar de Galilea Terminamos el día en Cafarnaúm, en la orilla norte del Mar de Galilea. En 1968, los arqueólogos hallaron la que ha sido considerada como "casa de Pedro", construida a finales del período helenístico y adaptada como iglesia doméstica. La sinagoga blanca data del siglo III o IV. Fue construida casi exclusivamente con bloques blancos de piedra calcárea. 5 – Lunes 5 de agosto Noche en Tiberíades Iniciamos un emocionante día, entre monumentos de las más diversas épocas. Bordeando el Mar de Galilea y el río Jordan, nos desplazamos hacia el sur hasta la fortaleza de Belvoir, 13 km al sur del Mar de Galilea. Es de época de los cruzados y su construcción comenzó en 1168 por orden del Gran Maestre de los Caballeros Hospitalarios. Es la fortaleza cruzada mejor conservada de todo Israel. La fortaleza de Belvoir Nuestra siguiente parada es Beit She'an, una antiquísima ciudad a 120 metros debajo del nivel del mar, a orillas del río Jordán, a 12 kilómetros al sur de Belvoir. En el lugar, conquistado por Tutmosis III, hubo un centro de gobernación egipcio, del que aún quedan restos de interés en lo alto del gran tell que domina el sitio. Aquí también pueden verse restos cananeos. La ciudad fue destruida por los asirios en el siglo VIII a.C., pero tuvo una gran recuperación en época grecorromana, cuando recibió el nombre de Escitópolis. Fue la ciudad principal de la decápolis romana, y es de esta fase de la historia de cuando quedan mayor número de restos, como el teatro, etc. Diversos restos arqueológicos en Beit Shean A sólo 8 km al oeste de Beit Shean hallaremos Beit Alpha, una sinagoga de la era bizantina, en las faldas del legendario monte Gilboa. El lugar es conocido por sus mosaicos. Representan el sacrificio de Isaac y los signos del zodiaco. Sinagoga y mosaicos de Beit Alpha Continuaremos nuestra ruta en dirección al Monte Tabor, 22 km al norte.

  • Three Conquests of Canaan
    ÅA Wars in the Middle East are almost an every day part of Eero Junkkaala:of Three Canaan Conquests our lives, and undeniably the history of war in this area is very long indeed. This study examines three such wars, all of which were directed against the Land of Canaan. Two campaigns were conducted by Egyptian Pharaohs and one by the Israelites. The question considered being Eero Junkkaala whether or not these wars really took place. This study gives one methodological viewpoint to answer this ques- tion. The author studies the archaeology of all the geo- Three Conquests of Canaan graphical sites mentioned in the lists of Thutmosis III and A Comparative Study of Two Egyptian Military Campaigns and Shishak and compares them with the cities mentioned in Joshua 10-12 in the Light of Recent Archaeological Evidence the Conquest stories in the Book of Joshua. Altogether 116 sites were studied, and the com- parison between the texts and the archaeological results offered a possibility of establishing whether the cities mentioned, in the sources in question, were inhabited, and, furthermore, might have been destroyed during the time of the Pharaohs and the biblical settlement pe- riod. Despite the nature of the two written sources being so very different it was possible to make a comparative study. This study gives a fresh view on the fierce discus- sion concerning the emergence of the Israelites. It also challenges both Egyptological and biblical studies to use the written texts and the archaeological material togeth- er so that they are not so separated from each other, as is often the case.

Chapter 7 Israelite Inscriptions from the Time of Jeremiah and Lehi Dana M. Pike The greater the number of sources the better when investi- gating the history and culture of people in antiquity. Narrative and prophetic texts in the Bible and 1 Nephi have great value in helping us understand the milieu in which Jeremiah and Lehi received and fulfilled their prophetic missions, but these records are not our only documentary sources. A number of Israelite inscriptions dating to the period of 640–586 b.c., the general time of Jeremiah and Lehi, provide additional glimpses into this pivotal and primarily tragic period in Israelite history. The number of inscriptions discovered from ancient Israel and its immediate neighbors—Ammon, Moab, Edom, Philistia, and Phoenicia—pales in comparison to the bountiful harvest of texts from ancient Assyria, Babylonia, and Egypt.

Eppelbaum1, Vladimir L. Vaksman2 1Dept. of Geosciences, Raymond and Beverly Sackler Faculty of Exact Sciences, Tel Aviv University, Tel Aviv 6997801, Israel 2KVGRS Ltd, 30/8 Fayerberg St., Tel Aviv, Israel Abstract: An integrated analysis of several regional geological and geophysical factors allowed to select the Makhtesh Ramon area (northern Negev, Israel) for sesarching diamondiferous associations. The most important regional factor is the Middle Cretaceous maximum in the development of upper mantle hot spots brightly appearing in this area. Analysis of magnetic (paleomagnetic), self-potential and ionselective data inambigously indicate presence of some bodies possibly having kimberlite (lamproite) origin occurring at small depths (8 – 50 m) in the western Makhtesh Ramon. Repeated erosion processes in the area caused removing most part of sedimentary associations that significantly simplified the processes of mineral sampling and rock withdrawn for geochemical and petrological analyses. Comprehensive mineralogical analyses enabled to detect the following minerals-satellites of diamond associations: chrome-diopside, orange garnet, bright-crimson pyrope, picroilmenite, moissanite, corundum, black spinel, olivine, anatase and tourmaline (including black samples). These minerals do not rolled and oxidized that is an additional evidence of the neighboring occurrence of the indigenous rocks. Data of electronic microscopy show that the grains of (1) picroilmenite and (2) pyrope contain, respectively: (1) cobalt, chrome, magnesium and nickel and (2) chrome, magnesium and aluminum.
