We explained how to get to this place

We explained how to get to this place, and the next morning brought us to a bus in Tel Hassul. The only signs that we have achieved the goal could be dominating the plain mound and several people working on it. I was a supervisor of works, which really turned archaeologist from Australia. "What made you choose this place?" - I asked. Archaeologist could not give a precise answer, explaining that the decision has not he. I asked what they are looking for, and the interviewee explained that held sixty years ago, excavations were superficial, and that modern techniques make it possible to find many more. Several people from his group ryli deep trench in search of remnants of stone buildings. You can go where you want, said the archaeologist, of any age smithereens here is a few thousand years - take your own memory. 
My satellites divided and were collected smithereens in order to take away with them in Amman (and then to the United States). I went to the top of mound and turned to the west. Before me is a view that accurately describe the archaeologists and sixty years ago: in the bright sunlight I could see Jericho. Thus, the Tel-Hassul well could be the place from which ascended into heaven, the prophet Elijah (photo 30). 
Before I leave, I bid farewell to the archaeologist of Sydney and thanked him. By the way, I said, do not know whether it was the fate of frescoes found in this 30-s. He thought that they were transported in the Rockefeller Museum in Jerusalem.
