SHILOH, WEST BANK (AP) — Deep in the West Bank, Israeli settlers have transformed an archaeological site into a biblical tourist attraction that attracts tens of thousands of evangelical Christians each year. Tel Shiloh is thought to have been the site of the biblical tabernacle, but not everyone is pleased at how the ruins are presented to visitors. Like many Holy Land sites, Tel Shi- loh sits at the confluence of competing narratives of archaeology, religion and nationalism. Critics say the site promotes a narrow interpretation of history popular with Israeli settlers and their Christian supporters. The hilltop mound, 20 miles north of Jerusalem in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, has been excavated by several archaeological missions, starting in 1922, and has yielded remains span- ning more than 3,700 years. For centuries, Jews, Muslims and Christians have associated the site with the home of the biblical tabernacle, the portable shrine where the Isra- elites housed the Ark of the Covenant. Because of its biblical significance, the archaeological ruins have become a pilgrimage site for evangelical Chris- tians. Last week, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited Tel Shiloh with former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee THE ASSOCIATED PRESS and settler leaders, calling it Israel’s Tourists visit the archaeological site of Tel Shiloh in the West Bank.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR IF APPEAL FAILS, BOARD MEMBERS WHO VOTED FOR IT SHOULD RESIGN During the past four months, we have seen the deaths of three of our community leaders, Roger Ackerman, Jim Campbell and Dr. Bill Painter. Their leadership is missed and is sure- ly needed at this time. I am apprecia- tive of the business leaders who are on the school district finance committee and are providing that same kind of leadership to the school board. The latest school board decision to appeal the State Education Depart- ment involvement in the school district is troubling because it will require further cuts to pay for this appeal. How much will this appeal cost? If the appeal fails, what resources will have to be cut to pay for this? I would suggest that if the appeal fails, the board members who voted for appeal should resign at the end of their elected term or before. All board members should be responsible for their actions.
