Interdisciplinary Research of Assyrian Siege Ramps – The Case of Tel Azekah

Over the next three years in Tel Azekah, a new project supported by the German-Israeli Fund (GIF Grant number 1238) will be conducted by a team of scholars from the Universities of Tel Aviv and Heidelberg, focusing on the study of the Assyrian siege ramp that was discovered at the site. This siege ramp's exposure will be used as a case-study for interdisciplinary research on Assyrian siege ramps, in order to gain a better understanding of this phenomenon.
