THREE BIBiICAL TOWNS suNll
FIED.
S holars report that they have identified
the ithree Brblical towns of Shiivh
Bettany and Jestanah over whose sites
American, Briiisn and Danes excavators
h:ive been digging. [lntil a few months
ago no archeological work of any kind
had been done over the sites of ancient
Jewish towos in the highlands of Palestire.
Borings over the site of Shiloh
wheire ine Hebrews ke)t the ark of the
covenant discloscd clar sivatification,
representing early Israeiite, Suaieueido-
Roman and Arab oceupation {n the
first stratum a flint sickle-edize was foun
anorg other relis. I'nis considered in
conaeetion with ti.e fact that iron sickles
were not generally used by the Isruelites
prior to the 11th century B. C . indicates
so.ne hing of the aze of the stratum.
Che findings so far are said o agree
remackably well with Biblical data.
Bechsny, the town in whieh Mary and
M:rt.a lived with Lazarus, bhas teen
identified with the village of Anani b,
tnentioned in the bouk of Nehemian.
The original name, it appear, was Beth-
Ananiah. In much the same maaner
scholars have identified the town of
Jashanah, mentioned in Il Chremeles,
whose site, it is betieved, is now occupied
by an Arab fort at Buri-el-Isannah —The
