http://kelleyscriptorium.blogspot.com/2010/08/from-bomb-shelter-to-first-century-tomb.html
Thursday, August 26, 2010. From a Bomb Shelter to a First Century Tomb. There’s a title we never thought we’d use! Hello, Friends and Family! We wanted to catch you up on the last month of happenings and, most importantly, to share with you pictures of our new apartment! We still have a few pictures we want to add to the wall, but we are really pleased with how the renovations turned out. So, we enjoy sharing our pictures with you! Adjustment and Culture Shock. Traveling to the Middle East is such a chal...

Friday, March 25, 2011. Hi friends and family. I’m sure you all have seen the news about the recent bus bombing in Jerusalem. We thought it would be good to write a quick entry in light of this recent event to not only let you know that we are alright (if you don’t already know), but more importantly to fill you in on some of the details and what the implications of this event could be.

Friday, December 16, 2011. Thesis Writing, the Final Christmas, and Other Tales from Jerusalem. The black juglet has been recognized and discussed by archaeologists since the early twentieth century, but no one in the past hundred years has ever done a study specifically on this kind of juglet. So my work represents the first synthesis and analysis of the black juglets! Did people like the black kinds better? Were they more (or less) expensive? All these issues pave the way for the anthropological questi...

Friday, October 23, 2009. Negev Field Study (and our new apartment! Shalom friends and family! Since we last updated you, a number of exciting things have happened. We left you hanging on our last entry when we noted that we had found a new apartment. Well, we moved in to our new place last week on Thursday! Maybe next week, after our next field study :0). Were the Philistines just bullies who simply enjoyed giving God's people a hard time? At both Beer-sheba and Arad, we spoke about Israel’s relig...

Kelley Scriptorium: Milestones and Distant Horizons
http://kelleyscriptorium.blogspot.com/2011/09/milestones-and-distant-horizons.html
Saturday, September 17, 2011. Milestones and Distant Horizons. It’s really hard to believe that we have been here for two years already—in many ways the time seems to have flown by and on some days it feels as if it couldn’t go any slower. Looking back it is amazing to remember that two years ago to the day almost we were getting settled in our apartment in the southern Jerusalem suburb of Baka. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). We are hopeful scholars in training who are passionate about ancient Near ...

Monday, January 31, 2011. Up On the Downs. Hello friends and family! Two weeks after returning from Egypt we packed up again and headed to the UK. We had an amazing trip thanks to our friends David and Sheila Holden, who were kind enough to host us and make our stay in England a wonderful and special time. So, read on if you’re interested in hearing a little more about it. We also got coffee at Starbucks (multiple times in fact) for the first time in a year and a half! God gives all men all earth to love,.

Monday, March 22, 2010. Almost 8 Months in Israel: Adaptation and Lingering Culture Shock. Hello Friends and Family! Can you believe we have been here almost 8 months? Overall, I have been amazed at the human body’s ability to ADAPT. It really seems like a person can be put in any new environment, and after awhile, their mind and body become ok with it…we somehow make a pattern of familiarity within the unfamiliarity. In addition to this, spring has sprung in Israel! With that in mind, we became excited ...

Saturday, December 25, 2010. The Gift of the Nile. As promised, we also wanted to update you on our recent 8-day adventure to Egypt! It was absolutely breathtaking. To get to at least one of these temples, the Philae Temple, we had to get there by way of a boat on the Nile. Throughout the course of the day, we actually had 2 boat rides on the Nile, which is much cleaner and prettier down in the south. Our field studies, at this point, are mostly done with JUC. In the spring, we have 1 final Archaeolo...
