1936 Area Burning Conflagration Lachish Section Tel Deweir City Gates Revetment

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back in time to Tel Deweir, Lachish, in 1936 Israel. The image showcases a section of revetment to the city gates, revealing abundant traces of burning that occurred in 588 B. C. This destructive conflagration led to the demise of Lac. The photograph transports us to an archaeological site where history comes alive through its ruins. The revetment stands as a testament to the ancient city's grandeur and fortification. Its intricate design and craftsmanship are still visible despite centuries of decay. The haunting beauty of this image lies not only in its composition but also in what it represents – a moment frozen in time when fire ravaged through these very walls. The remnants left behind tell a story of destruction and loss, reminding us of the fragility and impermanence of human civilization. As we gaze at this remarkable piece captured by Liszt Collection, we can't help but marvel at how archaeology allows us to connect with our past on such a profound level. It serves as a reminder that beneath our modern cities lie layers upon layers of forgotten civilizations waiting patiently for their stories to be unearthed. This print is more than just an artistic representation; it is an invitation to explore history's mysteries and delve into the depths of our collective heritage.
