As excavators carefully brushed away the dirt, the eyes of Alexander the Great stared back at them unblinking. For many archaeologists it would have been the find of a lifetime, but by 2015 Dr. Jodi Magness and her team were used to finding unexpected. Since 2012 their team has returned to the site of Huqoq, unearthing an unexpected cultural fusion of Biblical and Classical figures and stories. Most surprising has been the finds at the heart of the site’s spiritual center. Excavations in the synagogue have revealed a number of stunning mosaics that extraordinarily depict mythical and historical figures among the religious scenes. Join us tonight at 6 PM EST as we talk with Dr. Magness about the latest finds from the site of Huqoq, and discover a site where archaeology and apocrypha converge.
