In telling the story of Gibeon I have tried to show how the tale of the city unfolded week by week and year by year through excavation and study. I have sought to give in these pages a personally conducted tour, as it were, of the ruins of ancient Gibeon and what we have seen in them.... The results of the excavations at el-Jib are unique in that they can be related with a high degree of certainty to specific events described in the Old Testament. For the first time in the history of scientific archaeology in the land of the Bible an actual place name of a biblical city, neatly incised on clay, has been found under circumstances which make certain the identification of the name with the ruins.--from the Preface 606 $aSOCIAL SCIENCE / Archaeology$2bisacsh 607 $aAl Ji?b$xAntiquities 608 $aElectronic books. 615 7$aSOCIAL SCIENCE / Archaeology. 676 $a913.33 686 $aBC 8763$2rvk 700 $aPritchard$b James B$g(James Bennett),$f1909-1997.$0180572 702 $aPritchard$b James B., $4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910461836703321 996 $aGibeon, where the sun stood still$92493003 997 $aUNINA
