Abstract

One of the problems facing the researcher in studying the ancient history of Palestine is the problem of the sources. When archaeological excavations began in Palestine, the biblical archaeologists were interpreting archaeological discoveries according to the knowledge derived from the Old Testament, and the writings of Josephus Villavi, and their application to Palestinian sites. The Old Testament and the writings of Josephus Villavie are a reliable source for knowledge of the ancient history of Palestine?
