Museum of Philistine Culture (Ashdod)

http://elderofziyon.blogspot.com/2019/03/museum-of-philistine-culture-ashdod.html

Mrs. Elder and I spent our first day in Israel with friends in Ashdod, and we had lots of fun – eating at two terrific places, doing an escape room, and walking on the beach.

One thing I wanted to see was the Museum of Philistine Culture.

It seemed interesting to me that Israel would host a museum for the culture of one of our most implacable enemies.

Unfortunately, the museum was underwhelming. It has two exhibit areas, but the downstairs one had nothing to do with Philistines – it was more a collection of collections of random items like keychains, lighters, matches and other stuff.

The main level had a basic history and some artifacts from real Philistines.

That was about it, not really worth the price of admission. 
But it is still is interesting that Israelis, rather than try to erase the culture of their enemies, are trying to preserve it. 



We have lots of ideas, but we need more resources to be even more effective. Please donate today to help get the message out and to help defend Israel.
