LECTURE WITH Q&A: More than Just Mosaics: New Discoveries in The Ancient Synagogue at Huqoq in Israel’s Galilee
10:00 AM - 11:00 AM
Since 2011, Professor Jodi Magness has been directing excavations in the ancient village of Huqoq in Israel’s Galilee. The excavations have brought to light the remains of a monumental Late Roman (fifth century) synagogue building paved with stunning and unique mosaics, including biblical scenes and the first non–biblical story ever discovered decorating an ancient synagogue. In this slide-illustrated lecture, Professor Magness describes these exciting finds, including the discoveries made last summer.
