Horn Lectureship Series Presents: “The Austrian Expedition to Tell Lachish, 2017-2023,” by Felix Höflmayer, Ph.D.
This series of excavations have worked to expand the Middle Bronze Age palace and have discovered a possible entrance to an Iron Age IIA water system. Among the major finds were an early alphabetic inscription and a hieratic ostracon bearing a ration list with west-Semitic names, attesting to remarkable early administrative activity at the site. This lecture summarizes and discusses the results of the project in light of the findings from previous excavations.
