I had a subscription to Biblical Archaeology Review a few decades ago, and I loved it at the time. Even with no background in archaeology, it was very interesting stuff.

It's gratifying to see so many people, places, and events from Biblical times ultimately be confirmed by science, thus rebuking to a degree the knee-jerk skeptics who have a tendency to scoff at the Bible's value as an historical record...

We used to be subscribers, too. Maybe ten or fifteen years ago ... when our daughters were Girl Scouts, they sold discount magazine subscriptions, and BAR was one we got. It was very interesting.

I recently watched a video series about Holy Land archaeology. Many ancient sites, especially early ones like Canaanite cities, are entirely unexcavated. There is so much to find!
