Fine article on the excavations at Gath

[Shell B]

This is really interesting.

Diggers at Gath have also uncovered traces of a destruction of the city in the 9th century B.C., including a ditch and embankment built around the city by a besieging army — still visible as a dark line running across the surrounding hills.

Forgive me if this has been mentioned here, but did you read about the Egyptian pyramids they found from space? I know it is old news, but I haven't really come across much discussion about it. I do tend to miss a lot of threads here.
