"An ongoing archaeological excavation in Tel Tzafit continues to unearth the ruins of what was once the city of Gat – described in the Bible as the hometown of Goliath. Professor Aren Maeir, who is directing the dig, spoke to Arutz Sheva's Hebrew-language news service to discuss the latest finds.
Recent finds from the Tel Tzafit excavation are 'fascinating', Maeir said. The site, inhabited at times by Canaanites and at other times by Philistines, has remnants from many periods of history. 'We are focusing on the Canaanite period, the Philistine period, and the Israelite period, and for now we're primarily in the Philistine period,' he said."
