Ancient Refuge $44.1 In 1960, well-known Israeli archeologist Yigael Yadin made a startling discovery in a cave in the Judean desert. He found a bag of letters written by the Jewish revolutionary leader, Shimon Bar-Kokhba, who led his supporters into a fight against the Romans in the year 132. Now, historian Richard Freund returns to the same cave with the most recent archeological tools, intent on finding out more about Kokhba`s difficult life.

Through engaging debate concerning biblical archeology, ANCIENT REFUGE IN THE HOLYLAND will broaden viewer`s understandings of what cave-life was like for Bar-Kokhba`s followers.
