Abib Barley Found!

On Thursday March 14, 2002, the first day of searching, the Abib
Expedition has found Abib Barley in multiple locations. The Searchers
set out from Jerusalem and searched throughout the southern Shephelah
and Northern Negev. Abib Barley was found in various locations
including the slopes of the "Western Hill" of ancient Jerusalem, only
a short distance from the Temple Mount. Images of the Abib Barley are
available at:

More information on locations of Abib and images of the barley will be
forthcoming.

We wish to thank all those who supported the Expedition and prayed for
its success. The Abib Expedition was carried out by Nehemia Gordon,
Devorah Gordon, Yirmiyahu Hinger, Brian Convery, Michael Storie,
Richard Dolan, and Gerald Kirby.
