Horn Lectureship Series Presents: “The Austrian Expedition to Tell Lachish, 2017–2023,” by Felix Höflmayer, PhD

This series of excavations has worked to expand the Middle Bronze Age palace and has 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.

The event will take place on Monday, Nov. 6, 2023, at 7 p.m. in the Seminary Chapel at Andrews University. This event is free and open to the public.
