Description
During 1977 and 1978 the Meiron Excavation Project moved north from its excavations at Khirbet Shema and Meiron, excavating at the site of the synagogue at Gush Halav.
With only very limited areas available for excavation, the team nevertheless was able to extract significant information for the history of Galilean synagogues.
The synagogue here had a unique form, with spatial elements that have few if any parallels elsewhere.
This publication will thus be of great importance for the history of Galilee in the first millennium C.E. and for the development of synagogue architecture and its relationship to the culture of the region in general.
