Includes 132 b/w figures and 6 tables. In the northwest quarter of
the site of Caesarea Maritima is Field O, the location known as
"the synagogue site and Jewish Quarter." Although excavated in 1956
and 1962, archaeologists and scholars researching the excavation
results have been limited to seeing a brush-choked patch of
excavated ruins, viewing a few artifacts in museums, and to the
frustrating examination of the confusing, often contradictory
published preliminary reports. For whatever reason, there was no
final report published and there were no published photographs,
site plans, or plans of the structures. This lack of clear
understanding threatened to keep the site out of the corpus of
synagogue sites forever. Now, comprehensive research has discovered
previously unknown records from the 1962 excavations and produced a
comparative study of the 1945/46, 1956/62, and 1982/84 excavation
photographs and the complete findings from the Joint Expedition to
Caesarea Maritima survey and excavation seasons. Included for the
first time are a site plan of the excavated remains and
reconstruction drawings of the excavated structures.
