Sukkot 2006

Ancient Ruins at Shiloh

An olive and grape press and holding tank.  The fruit was crushed (upper right side of picture) and the juice would run through the slits into the storage vats

One of many almond trees

Entrance to a ruin of a Byzantine era church

The magen David in ceramic tile of the floor

Entering into the main part of the church, we see a footwashing trough in the floor

The church

Another ruin onsite, probably a synagogue(?)
