In this class, Frankie will be discussing various weapons used in ancient battles in Israel from the slings and sling stones used by David against Goliath (1 Sam 17) to the four Roman swords recently discovered in a cave overlooking the Dead Sea. We will discuss small weapons, like flint, bronze, and iron arrowheads, to large weapons, like the battering ram used by the Roman army against the defenders at Masada. Join us for this fascinating and wide-ranging discussion of ancient militaria.
Each class in this series is an independent topic, so, even if you have never joined us before, feel free to “drop in”!
