While we’re working hard on our next Season of Undeceptions, we’ve asked the Rev Dr George Athas to have a chat about how we can be so sure our old stuff – artefacts we’ve found from thousands of years ago – is actually old.
Meet our guest
Rev Dr George Athas is Director of Research, Old Testament and Hebrew at Moore Theological College in Sydney. We spoke to him at length for our super popular episode called ‘Between Testaments’, so go check that out if you haven’t heard it already. It’s one of my favourites. George has done a huge amount of research on the Tel Dan Inscription, a fragmentary stele that dates to the 9th Century BC. It’s considered the most important – and controversial – inscription found in Israel in recent years. And George wrote the first book about it.
