David beats Goliath and builds hilltop city--archeological find now open to public

David's city, built after victory over Goliath and the Philistines.

Nearby on the hill are many ancient, random carob and fig trees, with sweet fragrant fruit and crunchy pods, completely free for the picking.

This is a rich land, where the planters of these trees gave gifts to us across the centuries.


Fascinating article on the city's history and the dig.
