Looting in the Holy Land

We have been very poor bloggers, of late, we know. After the excavations at Marj Rabba, Mo began her new position and has been busily preparing new classes, grading and generally going full tilt. Meanwhile, Yo recently finished accompanying an Oriental Institute tour to Israel, and now remains in Jerusalem.

But recently a program concerning the problems of looting was released on al-Jazeera (English) news. This included interviews of colleagues and locals, including Mo, who comes in at about 36:00 (not wearing a hat!).

Note the lovely backdrop of Marj Rabba and students, including some from Brown University, University of Connecticut and more!
