Resource Manager Posted January 12, 2015 Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 Badè Museum of Biblical ArchaeologyHome Page Collections The collections of the Badè Museum of Biblical Archaeology are rich in history, both ancient and modern. Spanning a period of some 3,000 years, the museum holds a phenomenal array of everyday artifacts such as cooking pots, grinding stones, lamps, and agricultural implements from ancient Palestine along with colorful Greek and Cypriot ceramics, scarabs from Egypt, and cuneiform tablets from ancient Mesopotamia. See also Media The Secret of a Tell 8-page illustrated story book which explains how a tell builds up over the centuries and how archaeologists excavate it. Designed for grades 4-6, but all ages will find it informative and enjoyable.Download » A Manual of Excavation in the Near East By William F. Badè (1934): "This is the only book in any language describing, in detail, methods of archaeological excavation in the Near East. It presents a concise account of the methods used by the Pacific School of Religion Expedition at Tell en-Nasbeh, in Palestine."Download » Original Tell en-Nasbeh Site Report William F. Badè passed away in 1936, the year after fieldwork at Tell en-Nasbeh concluded. As a result, his assistants Chester McCown and Joseph Wampler published this site report in his stead in 1947. Until now accessing the report has been difficult because only a few hundred copies were ever produced and it has long been out of print. We are delighted to make the PDF files of both volumes available here for free! Many thanks to Professor Jeffrey R. Zorn and the Digital Scholarship and Preservation Services at Cornell University Library for making this happen.Download »H/t: BiblePlacesBlog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
