George St. Clair, who lectured on Palestine Exploration, gathers the main archaeological discoveries of his day for general readers. He moves from Egypt to Palestine, Jerusalem and Mesopotamia, describing excavated sites, inscriptions and identified places, and setting them beside the biblical narratives and the Gospels, with sources listed at the end of each chapter.
A clear Victorian survey of biblical archaeology, valuable now as a picture of how the field looked in its early decades. Download the free EPUB.
