To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In addition to the excayations at Jerusalem, which have not been unfruitful in results, some interesting explorations have been made during the past year in the north of Palestine. Captain WaiTen found it necessary to withdraw his men from Jerusalem during the summer months, in consequence of the prevalence of fever, from which they had already suffered much, and the whole of the exploring party removed to the Lebanon, until the cooler weather set in. While there they occupied themselves in inv...estigating the ruined temples of Ccele-Syria and Mount Hermon. The temples of Ccele-Syria appear to date from Homan times, and the inscriptions which are found in them are mostly Greek. The small temples about Hermon appear to be somewhat of more ancient date, their architecture being of the Ionic order. On the summit of Mount Hermon stands the ruins of a sacellum, which has nothing in its construction in common with the temples on the west below. This probably had to do with a different and more ancient form of worship.
