Archaeology

This month, dedicated to the mosaics of Magdala, our archaeology team wishes to share information about the ancient mosaics found at the site. Two thousand years ago, the inhabitants of Magdala chose this art form to decorate their synagogue and the most emblematic buildings of their community.

Each era and region have its own forms and types of ceramics, with stylistic changes evolving from generation to generation.
