Tell el Hesy (Lachish), Hyksos and Israelite Cities

A pioneering Egyptologist, Flinders Petrie (1853-1942) excavated over fifty sites. This reissue brings together two illustrated excavation reports. The first, published in 1891 and of significance in Near Eastern archaeology, records his dig in Palestine at Tell el-Hesi. The second, from 1906, covers a number of Hyksos and Israelite sites in Egypt.
