How did 900-year-old rings, bracelets, earrings and hairpins materialize in the kitchen of a Crusader fortress tower in Modiʻin? This question has occupied a group of fourth- to twelfth-grade students from the Modiʻin-Maccabim-Reʻut Municipality who participate in an archaeological excavation at Givat Tittora, very close to home. The Israel Antiquities Authority has invited these students to discover tantalizing clues left by those who lived in their areas in the past. The excavation endeavor is both educational and social: to provide local residents of all ages an opportunity to uncover their town’s cultural heritage – directly and personally.
