520    Acclaimed scholar and professor Jack Lewis narrates the 
       lives and contributions of a number of nineteenth-century 
       explorers of Bible lands whose work set the stage for 
       modern biblical archaeology. Here are the stories of John 
       Lewis Burckhardt, William Francis Lynch, James T. Barclay,
       Selah Merrill, and other explorers of Bible lands from the
       mid- to late-nineteenth century. Most of these men did not
       engage in archaeology as we commonly define it today, but 
       their contributions set the stage for modern archaeology. 
       They were not excavators, but students of geography, 
       nature, languages, customs, traditions, and the Bible--all
       of which are vital to a more refined understanding of the 
       Bible. As they traversed Palestine, these explorers 
       encountered inscriptions and even previously unidentified 
       languages (e.g., Hittite). Lewis's accounts reveal their 
       interests, almost presciently, in the categories of 
       anthropology as currently defined--cultural anthropology, 
       physical anthropology, linguistics, and archaeology. These
       pursuits laid the groundwork for the more comprehensive 
       and interdisciplinary studies that have eventually become 
       the trademark of both biblical studies and the archaeology
       of the biblical world. As Lewis shows, we owe explorers a 
       great debt of gratitude for their pioneering work.
