Is this the city they call the perfection of beauty?

Some search for archaeology and find treasure; others search for treasure and find archaeology.

The Bible and the Sages were lavish in their descriptions of Jerusalem’s beauty and wealth. But how much of this has survived? The search for Jerusalem’s treasures, which endured destruction, ruin, plunder and exile, has never ceased.

Over the past 150 years, countless archaeological expeditions have excavated in Jerusalem. These searches have yielded remarkable discoveries that continue to illuminate the captivating history of a royal city, its palaces, temples, and catastrophic destructions.

In this captivating lecture, we will explore treasures found and treasures yet to be found, fruitless searches and surprising discoveries, Temple vessels and private hoards, royal palaces and wealthy homes, true scholars and impostors in disguise.
