| Summary: | In 1970 the Israel Museum reconstructed a late 2nd-century B.C.E. oil-press on the southern slope of the Rehavia Valley. The press was discovered in 1962, during excavations conducted by the Department of Antiquities and Museums and directed by Z. Yeivin and G. Edelstein, in the area of a fortified farm in Tirat-Yehudah. Under the supervision of Y. Mintzker and the excavators, D. Urman directed the reconstruction, which revealed some of the problems the ancient olive-pressers presumably faced. |
