Despite the ongoing conflict with Hamas, we are still in the field at Tell es-Safi. we are a much smaller crew than anticipated since many of the crew have already left. Even though the excavations are closing down for the year, it is still a very busy time for all of us. We are continuing to draw profiles, shoot final photographs, digitally scan various areas, label and register finds, pack up samples for transport to various labs in Israel and around the world, and pack up our supplies and equipment for storage in Israel.
