Every new Israeli high rise should incorporate a fort.

And a bomb shelter, and an arms room. Better safe than sorry.

Among the artifacts discovered in the ruined citadel's rooms are ceramic figurines with human and animal forms, bronze weapons, and pottery vessels that hadn't been made locally -- they had been imported.

Now we know why the Canaanite civilization fell.....free trade.

Shhhhh! The so-called Palestinians will claim the building as being built by their ancestors and move in.

I tell you what, just about everywhere in Europe and the Middle East - most of the world - you can't spit without hitting some "ancient arch-e-o-logical" site.
Heck, there 's a lot of stuff under the ground over there.
(this includes Britain also)
