Biblical Archeology – The City of Lachish
http://www.classicalhebrewblog.com/2008/02/14/biblical-arche...
The city of Lachish, located in the maritime lowlands of Judea, is first mentioned in the Bible during Joshua’s conquest. After the Gibeonites deceptively made a covenant with Joshua, many of the Canaanite kings were alarmed that they might be conquered with Gibeonite assistance, and therefore set out to fight the Gibeonites. Joshua took over all of these rebellious cities, and Lachish, being one of them, was later part of the territory assigned to the tribe of Judah.

The History Of The Canaanite Pantheon
http://www.classicalhebrewblog.com/2008/02/11/the-canaanite-...
The name Canaanites denotes the inhabitants of the land of Canaan who inhabited the land prior to the Israelite settlement, and remained among the Israelites throughout the First Temple Period. The Bible stresses that the Israelites must stay apart from them, and the Patriarchs set an example for proper behavior by not marrying Canaanite women despite the fact that that would have been the easy and obvious choice.

Caesarea National Park - Pictures And Review
http://www.israel-on-blog.com/caesarea-national-park/
Caesarea area has had a long and checkered history. It was initially settled during the Hellenistic period (third century B.C.E.), when the Phoenicians built a small port city that they named Straton’s Tower. In 90 B.C.E., Alexander Jannaeus captured Straton’s Tower as part of his policy of developing the shipbuilding industry and enlarging the Hasmonean kingdom. Straton’s Tower remained a Jewish city for two generations, until the Roman conquest of 63 B.C.E. when the Romans declared Straton’s Tower an autonomous city.
