Title ProperIsrael antiquities authority and Atra Kadisha
LanguageENG
AuthorTaub, Eliav ;  Sasson, Avi
Summary / Abstract (Note)Atra Kadisha is an ultra-Orthodox organisation that is at the forefront of the battle against excavation of ancient graves for fear of desecrating the dignity of the dead. This article examines the interrelationship between the organisation and the relevant state authorities, notably the Israel Antiquities Authority (IAA), in an attempt to ascertain the extent of bureaucratic rigidity/flexibility in Israel on the issue of excavating ancient graves, and to assess implications of this behaviour for the public space.
