Since 2011, Professor Jodi Magness has directed excavations in the ancient village of Huqoq in Israel's Galilee. The excavations have brought to light the remains of a monumental Late Roman (ca. 400 C.E.) synagogue building paved with stunning and unique mosaics, including biblical scenes and the first non-biblical story ever discovered decorating an ancient synagogue. In this slide-illustrated lecture, Magness describes these exciting finds. For more information visit www.huqoq.org
