영문 초록

The idea of ‘biblical’ archaeology is sometimes rejected. The Bible is considered as only literature without any connection with history. Thus it’ s not possible to make any archaeological support to the Bible. This article evaluates this discussion from the perspective of the history of Biblical rchaeology, its goals, challenges and contributions. It presents the discussion on the relationship between Archaeology and Bible and how the presuppositions of the researcher play the main role in the way he/she will evaluate the Scriptures and its connections with the archaeological finding and the Ancient Near East texts. The study shows that Biblical Archaeology is alive and still doing contributions to the Academic world.
