Episode 6 entitled, Archaeological Mysteries, is 14:38 in length. The discussion is very intriguing as Dave Stotts and his colleagues tackle many archaeological mysteries such as, Where is the Ark of the Covenant? and Why was Stonehenge actually built? These are just two of the many mysteries that are covered in Episode 6.
Directing beneath the video there is text that the student is to read. The
text is more or less a summary of the video. It includes pictures of
important archaeological items discussed during the video.
Each video has a scripture reference to go along with it. For
Episode 6 the scripture reading is, Isaiah 64:8 which says,
“But now, O Yahweh, You are our Father, We are the clay, and You our potter;
And all of us are the work of Your hand.”
The Optional Activity for this Episode is for the student to, "Drawing pottery and recognizing its type and date is a useful skill in archaeology. Look at some pottery images, make some basic sketches of them, and try to identify the date and type (bowl, lamp, cooking pot, krater, storage jar, jug, cult vessel)."
There are two Dig Deeper Articles for this Episode. The first is entitled, Pottery in Archaeology and the second is entitled, Solomonic Gates.
Here are some of the discussion questions from various episodes.
My daughter said, "I haven't ever studied archaeology before. I found Drive Thru History® Adventures, Bible Unearthed to be interesting. I have learned a lot from these episodes."
