Re: The First Elah-Fortress Ostracon Photo?

More tidbits:

1) Notice in the photo that there is a paleography chart on the table
next to the ostracon.

2) Here's a link to the site's location on Google Maps:

http://maps.google.com/?q=31.696,34.9575

3) If I could wish for the inscription's content, based on Aren Maeir's
reaction & the site's prominent relation to the Elah Valley, it would
be nice if it mentioned the confrontation between David & Goliath
(1Samuel 17:2 & 21:9).
