"The final season of excavations at Tel Beer-sheba, the eighth, took place in the summer of 1976 and was carried out after his demise by Aharoni's chief assistants, Ze'ev Herzog, Itzhaq Beit-Arieh and Anson F. Rainey. The latter two regrettably did not live to see the completion of this publication. But they shared in the work, as did the young staff members who enabled the Tel Beer-sheba project to become a reality. To Fredrick Brandfon of the University of Pennsylvania, Steven Derfler of the University of Minnesota and Le-Grande Davies of Brigham Young University go our sincere thanks"--
