Hyksos Palace Excavated at Tell el-Dab'a

BiblePlaces Blog (Todd Bolen)

Unfortunately you cannot link on individual stories on this blog so you will need to page down to the post on 31st May 2009 for this story on the above page.

Discoveries from excavations at Tell el-Dab'a, the Hyksos capital in Egypt, were announced recently in a press release from the University of Vienna, but the article was only available in German. Joe Lauer has received and passed along a statement from the press office in English, which is given below. Photos of the cuneiform tablet, horse burial, and archaeologist are linked at the bottom of this page.

See the above page for the full English translation.
