"Tel Beer Sheva" Israel Travelogue by Martin_S.


Israel Travel Guide: 10,087 reviews and 22,946 photos

The ancient city of Beer Sheva (today a Tel, which means a "mound" on which remains of an ancient city stands) is located adjacent to the modern city of Beer Sheva. This is a pic of the Tel (mound) as you approach it. (pic from Steve @ www.eduresources.org)

This is how the Tel looks from inside. You can see the well on the left and the entrance to the city on the right.

    Hi Martin, would you like some stamps from Indonesia? I can mail them to you. My younger sister also collects stamps & she is member of philately group here. I'll give you some Indonesian coins & bills for your collection next time I go to Israel :-)
