orion Jerusalem Post article on Ein Gedi excavation
The Jerusalem Post had a report on Dr. Yizhar Hirschfeld's excavations. The
article, by Abraham Rabinovich, is at
http://www.jpost.com/Features/Articles-7.html
It mentions, inter alia, the "cells," pools for irrigation,
dependence on a "literary thread," and more.
It states that the Latin text of Pliny refers to the destruction of
Jerusalem in 70 CE. In my view, it does not.
