To the Editor:
Your first issue was good, but the second was great. I especially enjoyed the article “When Was the Age of the Patriarchs?” It was clear and quite readable. Please don’t be afraid to include another “technical” article.
Biblical Archaeology Review
Biblical Archaeology Review is the flagship publication of the Biblical Archaeology Society. For more than 40 years it has been making the world of archaeology in the lands of the Bible come alive for the interested layperson. Full of vivid images and articles written by leading scholars, this is a must read for anyone interested in the archaeology of the ancient Near East.
To the Editor:
I have heard that archaeologists have found a mummy of an Egyptian pharaoh who might be identified with the pharaoh of the Exodus, and that salt crystals were in his lungs, leading to the supposition that he might have died by drowning in salt water.
Is there any truth to this story? Can you give me some expert information on this report?
