ANCIENT PEOPLE 4 MYSTERY
Excavations on. Site OF Askalon and
0axa May Throw Light on
philistines.

A further attempt Is to be made this
summer to solve the mystery Of the
Philistines.''
Professor Garstand, the archeolo-
gist, has returned to Palestine after
his visit to England and has started
to mark out sites for further excava-
tions.
During the past two years the pro-
fessor and his assistants have been
engaged in making exploration on the
sites of thesancient cities Of Askalon
and GAIA.
This season trial explorations are to
be made upon series Of tells" Ear
tificial hill mounds, the debris Of sue
cessive cities near the two sites of
Askalon and GAIA. Little is known of
the national history Of the Philistines,
and it is the object Of the new excava-
tions to get at the problem of this
| mysterious race.
Professor Garstand considers that it
would be too prolonged and expensive
a business to dig through the great
depth Of Graeco-Roman buildings to
the deeper layers in which lie the
Philistine remains of the city Of Aska-
Ion, so that the excavations will be
outside the walls of the city. A good
deal Of pottery has been discovered
! and a few weapons which may have
been used against King David.
Many theories have been advanced
as to who the Philistines were, and
from whence they came, but it is gen
orally believed their origin was in the
neighborhood of the island Of Cyprus.
Reference is made to them in the pre-
Mosaic period, but for at least 5000
years they have remained mystery.
