Explore role of Yadin's excavations at Masada. --Bjornpa (talk) 19:13, 26 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Expand more on specific sites that have been affected by political unrest. NaturallyAesthetic (talk) 23:57, 27 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Varun- The six day war entry seems unnecessary as part of a the page since it does not necessarily describes in detail the political consequences besides the fact Israel has laid claim to the sites an example i guess would be  : "the Israeli claims to the heritage sites after the six day war pissed off so and so and all hell has broken lose.

Marleen-I think it would be best to give more of a general stance on the controversy between the journalists and their counterparts rather than citing a few specific arguments. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mnlinares (talkcontribs) 04:02, 28 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I would love to hear more about the controversy itself. I feel like you have a lot of buildup/background information but then we get to the end and the whole point of the page is brushed over. As Marleen mentioned, it would be nice to hear some different views on the topic (maybe that's how you can include the more recent sources you were talking about in class).

Whitney-I agree with Marleen as well. Thinking of the general wiki user I think a better explainnation of the different views of the politics is needed. (Wmwright (talk) 23:55, 29 November 2012 (UTC))[reply]

Missing section

[edit]

The role of the settler organization Elad (Ir David Foundation) in Jerusalem is probably the most direct example of politics in archaeology. So I'm surprised it is missing from this article. Zerotalk 10:54, 15 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
