Where is Mt. Sinai? The investigation and study of Har Karkom has been the life work of Emmanuel Anati, an 83-year-old Italian archaeologist who has been documenting finds at the site for more than 30 years, as reported in the March/April 2014 issue of BAR.

Anati delivered the lecture “Har Karkom–Archaeological Discoveries on a Holy Mountain in the Desert of Exodus” at the recent Out of Egypt: Israel’s Exodus Between Text and Memory, History and Imagination conference hosted by Calit2’s Qualcomm Institute at UC San Diego.
