Laboratory of Coastal Archaeology and Underwater Survey

The Laboratory for Coastal Archaeology and Underwater Survey, headed by Prof. Assaf Yasur-Landau, studies the interregional interaction and human adaptation to environmental as well as political changes in the Mediterranean through a unified exploration of sea, coast/port, and inland tel settlement levels. The lab conducts archaeological surveys and excavations both on land and underwater. Some of the laboratory’s research projects include both terrestrial and underwater excavations at Tel Kabri, Tel Dor, and Tel Qasile.
