BIBL 471 - Biblical Archaeology

Liberty University Students

Most Journal Articles listed here are either available online at Liberty Library search LINK or through ILLusing your ezproxy login. It is not advisable to use Wikipedia as some of the information is unreliable and can be misleading. Here is a link to reliable online resources including Bible Dictionaries and Encyclopedias that are made available through my BLOGAlso, be careful with older Encyclopedias and Dictionaries, as this could reflect outdated research. Also, the Google Books Preview and Amazon.com's Look Inside feature, can be a big help, if you watch carefully the quality of the books (from a publisher with University in the name i.e., Oxford University Press, Harvard, etc.). You may need to set up a Google account to view the pages but this is free. Sometimes pages unavailable through the Amazon Look Inside are available in Google Books and vice verse.

The following lists of resources are not exhaustive and you may use any additional academic resources you have available. You must use at least 6 sources (books or articles) for each paper. To the best of my knowledge the documentation is accurate but if you notice a dead or broken link, please send me an email and I will attempt to repair it for other students. If you have any specific questions please do not hesitate to contact me.

TIP
: If you want the correct TURABIAN format in your paper you can copy and paste these items "as is" into your Bibliography but do not copy the hyperlinks (i.e. LINK or JSTOR buttons). To create your footnotes some changes will be required. See Turabian help LINK

INDEX

TIP:For the Turabian format all you need to do is copy and paste the following books or articles into your bibliography to preserve the proper format. Need more help with Turabian LINK

              Dame Kathleen Kenyan

              Kenyon's excavation reports were not published until after her death and so scholars did not have the opportunity to examine her research until after she died (See the Wood controversy). However, there is more to the site of Jericho than the debate between Kenyon and Wood. Certainly you will find lot of information under Jericho related to Kenyon, but this is not a paper about the site of Jericho, so remain focused on the task. Information on Kenyon can be found in the history of archaeology and in a good Bible Dictionary or Encyclopedia LINKunder the sites that she excavated. Questions that you should answer in your paper include:

              1. What was the controversy surrounding the location of Jericho between Dr. Bryant Wood and Kathleen Kenyan?
              2. What was her specialty in archaeology?
              3. Where did she excavate besides Jericho?
              4. What is the Wheeler-Kenyon Method?
              5. What discoveries was she involved in?
              6. What was the Biblical impact of her research?
