I was on four excavations there. Our first Archaeologist was Pesach Bar Adon, and our chief fundraiser was a former Baptist Minister Vendyl Jones. I was the Project Geologist and my reports are on file at the Department of Antiquities. We used various new methods at the time, including SEM Analysis, and were one of the first excavations to use GPR, which are common nowadays. The gentlemen who operated it for us was a former NASA Engineer, and it was developed as part of the Apollo Program. Pesach died and our next Archaeologist was Daniel Patrick, also of the Department of Antiquities. There were other excavations that I did not participate in. I know they were excavating Shiloh as well, and other interesting sites. The documentary you mentioned must have been done years after my excavations in the 1980’s as I hever heard of it.

Have they used ground penetrating radar on any of these sites?
