UPDATE: The link is active!

 

On the heels of D. Schloen's Saturday ASOR talk and of D. Pardee's presentation on the new Zincirli Inscription at SBL this coming Sunday, the NY Times is publishing an article with photograph (!) tomorrow (11/18) in the Science section.  I will post a link to the article as soon as it is available.
