Eli Shukron – archaeologist and tour guide, expert on the history of Jerusalem
Shalom
I would like to introduce myself; I am an experienced archaeologist, a graduate of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. For the last 18 years I have had the privilege of co-directing some of the most important excavations that have taken place in Jerusalem, in particular the biblical City of David. Now I wish to share with you my specialized expertise on ancient Jerusalem and combine it with my extensive knowledge of the history and archaeology of the land of Israel. In order to do this I have also became a Tour Guide licensed by the Israeli Ministry of Tourism. Let me guide you and introduce you to the amazing finds I have recently unearthed, for example: |
The Siloam pool from the second temple period
The Canaanite fortress by the Gihon Spring
The Herodian drainage system and the second temple period “Pilgrim’s Route”
The foundations of the Western Wall, bellow the Herodian street
Many of the important archaeological finds that I have excavated over the years are shown in the following photographs. This is just a taste, let me take you there, and I will provide you with a unique guided tour based on my own intimate knowledge of the sites. In addition my extensive knowledge of the archaeology and history of the Land of Israel also enables me to guide you throughout the country and cover a variety of topics.
You can join the “Holy Bible Trail” and follow the story from the dawn of civilization to the modern State of Israel. Explore the places described in the Bible with Eli Shukron, archaeologist and tour guide, and you will be amazed by his knowledge and experience the joy of discovery!
