Daily Life in Bible Times: What Archaeology Tells Us Kindle Edition

The Bible tells the story of the people and events which laid the foundation of three great faiths. But what about the many other people who lived during these long ago times? What would your life be like if you were one of them? Where would you live? What would you eat? How would your life be different, and the same, from what we know today? This book uses archaeology to answer these questions and explores the daily life of people from the days of nomadic wandering and the Exodus though the Roman period and the fight for Jerusalem and Masada. The reader learns about where people lived, what they ate, how archaeologists carry out their work and more. The book is the creation of two archaeologists, one also a teacher and one an illustrator. It is extensively illustrated in full color and is divided into convenient sections which gives the reader the opportunity to explore their favorite subject with ease. While the book is aimed at a younger audience, adults will also enjoy learning what archaeology has brought to our understanding of daily life in Bible times. Read more
