Eli Shukron – archaeologist and tour guide, expert on the history of Jerusalem

Shalom
I would like to introduce myself; I am an experienced archaeologist, a graduate of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. For the last 18 years I have had the privilege of co-directing some of the most important excavations that have taken place in Jerusalem, in particular the biblical City of David. Now I wish to share with you my specialized expertise on ancient Jerusalem and combine it with my extensive knowledge of the history and archaeology of the land of Israel. In order to do this I have also became a Tour Guide licensed by the Israeli Ministry of Tourism.
