The Work of the Heshbon Survey Team, 1973
ONE of the aims of this past season's excavation at Heshbon was to gain an archeological picture of occupational sites in the vicinity of Tell Hesban, with special emphasis on thoroughly ex ploring the very large valley, Wadi Hesban, which lies to the north and west of the Tell.
