RESEARCH PAPER ASSIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS
OVERVIEW
Archaeology is possible because men and women become empassioned with the material history and culture of the Bible. This drives them to become explorers like Lawrence of Arabia, Nelson Glueck, and other adventurer-scholars surveying the Holy Land on horseback in the early 20th century. It drives them to become experts in excavation, ancient languages, archeobotany, archaeozoology, etc. In this assignment, you will take a deep-dive look into the fascinating lives of such scholars who paved the way for biblical archaeologists today.
