Endnote 2 – Babatha’s Story

For a popular account of the discoveries in the caves, see Yigael Yadin, Bar-Kokhba (London: Weidenfeld and Nicolson, 1971). The complete report on the finds from the Cave of Letters (excluding the documents) is in Yadin, Finds from the Bar-Kokhba Period in the Cave of Letters (Hebrew) (Jerusalem: Israel Exploration Society, 1963). Preliminary reports on other caves are in various articles in the Israel Exploration Journal (IEJ) published between 1961 and 1962.
