Dr. Wood spoke to two college religion classes and a local high school class, as well as opened a preview exhibit at Pike County library of 35 artifacts from the biblical world. Dr. Wood also gave two public lectures. One was entitled 'Digging Up the Truth at Jericho,' which explained how a careful examination of the pottery and archaeology of the site support the biblical account. The second was entitled 'Discovery of the Lost Fortress of Ai,' which demonstrated how the archaeology and geography of Khirbet el-Maqatir have led to its identification as the Old Testament site of Ai.
Dr. Wood's visit was one of the events leading up to the University of Pikeville hosting 'Khirbet el-Maqatir-A Journey through Biblical History.' You can learn more about this exhibit at the links below.
