Jerusalem in archäologischer, historischer und theologischer Perspektive

The 20 articles collected here present the results of the excavations carried out in ancient Jerusalem over the last 20 years in an interdisciplinary collaboration and offering a comprehensive reconstruction of the history of the Holy City from its earliest beginnings to the Roman Aelia Capitolina. Leading researchers use the latest scientific methods of analysis to bring to light both new facts and current debates about their proper interpretation. What in the biblical account is history, what is wishful thinking or even myth? What significance does Jerusalem have for the emerging Judaism and Christianity?
