The Byzantine Church at Tel Keriot


The "amphora mosaic" in the central isle of the church.

And then, to be involved in the re-discovering of this ancient past through the discipline of archaeology, is to feel incredibly connected. The discovery and excavation of a Byzantine Church (4th - 8th Centuries), in the hometown of one of the disciples of Jesus, helps bring the biblical world to light.
