This bowl is a replica of an artifact found in the
excavation of the Tel Qasil (ancient Tel Aviv)
Philistine Temple. Bird-shaped bowls were
common in the 11th century B.C. (the century that
saw the Judges and the story of Ruth), when they
were frequently displayed on cylindrical stands. The
bowl itself is wheel-thrown, while the wings and
head had to be formed by hand. The original bowl
from the Tel Qasil Temple is on exhibit today at the
Eretz Yisrael Museum in Tel Aviv.
The Tel Qasil Pottery Kit contains:
• potsherds buried in sand;
• glue (for sticking together potsherds);
• paintbrush (for applying glue);
• plaster (for filling in holes);
• "spatula" (for applying plaster);
• balloon (for applying plaster in some pieces);
• complete instructions and a welcome to the world
of archaeology by Perli Pelzig (English & Hebrew);
• scroll explaining the beginnings of ancient pottery
(English & Hebrew);
• a display card containing interesting information
about the origin, usage, and history of your pot
(English & Hebrew).
Assembled Size: 10.5" X 11" X 6.5"
