This week I have been wearing some of my Lachish t-shirts.
Normally you will seldom see me in a t-shirt. I almost always wear a collared shirt. However, with sheltering in place I now almost always wear a t-shirt around the house. I have been pulling out many of my old t-shirts to wear, and most of them have some significance.
Lachish was in the news about a month ago. An announcement was made about a sceptre that had been found in the temple we were digging in a few years ago. The scepter was found after our team left for the season.
However, it is always interesting to see the sites that I have worked at mentioned in the news as I learn more about what has happened to some of the finds and what has been learned from them.
I still am not sure exactly where the scepter was found, but here is a picture of us digging in the temple area.
I always have great memories when I see Lachish in the news. Going on an archaeological dig is a great experience and I look forward to my next dig.
