Center for Near Eastern Archaeology

Welcome to the digital home of the Baluʿa Regional Archaeological Project. We hope you will find these webpages about our work in Jordan interesting and informative. The navigation sidebar links to helpful topics, especially regarding our upcoming 2022 season of excavation, scheduled June 23 - August 4! For those on a mobile platform, please note that the navigation links may be floating about. Especially important for those planning to join us this summer are the "Dig with BRAP" and "Life on the BRAP" tabs.

For photos and updates of our work, check out the BRAP Beat, our weekly newsletter while in the field. You can also connect with us on Facebook and Instagram!

Are you interested in supporting the work of the BRAP without needing to tote a trowel? Donate to the BRAP through our sponsoring institution, La Sierra University! Head over to Donations and use the “other” box at the bottom right of the page to type in “Balua Project.” Thank you!

If you have questions about this project or future participation as a staff member or volunteer, please contact Monique Roddy at mroddy@lasierra.edu.
