KNW 2312 - Religious and Social Meanings of the Holy Land

Credits: 3

Through archaeological and site fieldtrips, readings, and lectures by experts in the field, students will investigate the diverse meanings of the Holy Land to members of the Jewish, Christian and Islamic faiths who have regarded the region as religiously significant for more than three millennia. Students will learn how the two disciplines of archaeology and religious studies combine to inform a deeper understanding of the Holy Land than does a single disciplinary study. Students will also explore the complexity of daily life in the modern state of Israel.
