 | | The Eretz Israel Museum, the latest "beneficiary" of the Philistine city, is currently featuring an exhibition of cult items from the favissa (a pit or other hidden place reserved for sacred and/or votive objects) of a Philistine temple in Yavneh. |
 | | In the modern era, the name "Palestine," used to refer to the area of Eretz Israel to the west and east of the Jordan River, became current again in European languages and was also absorbed by Hebrew. |
 | | Furthermore, it provides even readers who are not professionals in the field with a fascinating analysis of the findings and their significance, and is an important contribution to the literature on Eretz Israel's culture during the biblical period in general and on the culture of the Philistines within that culture in particular. |
