Journey to the Copper Age: Archaeology in the Holy Land presents a fascinating journey of the development of humanity in the Holy Land (present-day Israel, Palestine, and Jordan) and its ties to the beginnings of metal production. The exhibition is based on the research of Anthropology and Judaic Studies Professor Thomas Levy at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) and a research team of international scientists from Israel, Jordan, and the United States, and Europe. Highlights from the exhibition include photographs from renowned National Geographic photographer Kenneth Garrett and a collection of archaeological artifacts seen for the first time on the West Coast from the Israel Museum in Jerusalem, the UCSD Levantine Archaeology Laboratory, and the Department of Antiquities of Jordan. There will also be hands-on activities for both children and adults.
