About Us

The Tel Abel Beth Maacah Excavations are directed by Naama Yahalom-Mack and Nava Panitz-Cohen, under the auspices of The Hebrew University of Jerusalem.

Academic advisors: Prof. Amihai Mazar (the Hebrew University of Jerusalem), Prof. Lawson Younger (Trinity International University).

Associate director: Matthew Susnow (The Hebrew University of Jerusalem).

This project has been made possible by the very generous financial

support of private donors, and by two Israel Science Foundation Grants awarded to Prof. Naama Yahalom-Mack since 2017.
