William Foxwell Albright Student finally makes good on the Biblical Proof !

In 1971 a student in the Albright school of archaeology,  on a Hebrew Union College excavation, sponsored from Allegheny College, excavated the Solomonic Gate at Tel Gezer directed by Dr. William Dever. King Solomon's Gate at Gezer finally provided Yigael Yadin with his "Biblical Proof", and completed the loop started by William Foxwell Albright. The discovery was proclaimed by Yadin himself to be his greatest triumph in his extraordinary life. A life which included being a founder of the state of Israel, military hero, the excavation of Masada, The Cave of Letters and so much more.

This is the Story of that Dig and What happened after.
