For readability, I display the pages on top of each other rather than side-by-side (book format). Chapters and sections begin on even pages (left side) with introductory photos. Title pages begin on odd pages (right side).

To see the book layout, reduce the percentage in the title bar below to about 50. Then click the three dots in the title bar (right side) and select “Two page view.”

Kedesh of Naphtali Photos

View Northeast: The remaining wall from a Roman-Period temple at Tel Kedesh. In 2000, Hershel Shanks called for a restoration of the temple.1 Twenty-plus years later, it still has not happened.

This pillar (one of six) and ornate cornice stones come from the Roman temple. These and other artifacts remain unprotected in the temple’s courtyard, which awaits excavation.

View northeast: Tel Kedesh (center) is located on a plateau in upper Galilee. The remains of the Roman Temple are visible just off the path that circles the tel (right center; see the top photo on page 60).

View east: Large Sarcophagi were found at Tel Kedesh. This one is located in the trees on the west end of the east mound (see the photo on page 63; the mound and trees are Top center).

View north: Tel Kedesh is less than 1 mile (1.6 kilometers) from the Lebanese border. These early Israeli military trenches are on the northwest side of Tel Kedesh (east mound).

View Northeast: The east mound of Tel Kedesh (top center) has the Roman Temple. The south mound (bottom center) contains the remains of the Hellenistic Administration Building of Kedesh.
