General Notes | 1998-7-8 | gB | This view aims at showing rise from the north. The blue pickup on the right, Jim and John on the left, serve as a point of reference at the summit of the ridge. The shots were taken as I walked further to the north: the widest view was taken at some 350 paces from the excavations, and it takes in the high tension pole and behind it left edge of the High Mound all the way to the cemetery on the right. The shots closer to the ridge show two tents which are pitched in the depression between the ridge and the tell: these tents are not visible from a distance, and this gives a good perceptual gauge of the height of the ridge.
