Putting the Pieces
Back Together
TOARCH (Torah & Archaeology) is our program for communities, educators and educational programs. What we learn from excavations and museums is made available to enrich the educational process. We bring the artifacts into the classroom so that they can be touched and experienced.
Ma'ayan is our new Tanach Visual Database (in development). It will bring photographs, maps, videos and other media, chapter by chapter, to supplement the learning experience. Fully searchable, we are now nearing completion of our pilot.

Foundation Stone has embarked on an ambitious new project that will help educators everywhere. As the Corona virus has impacted schools around the world, there is a growing need for online tools and resources. Since early this year, requests have come in for virtual tours and virtual learning based on Foundation Stone's unique blend of Torah and Archaeology. The MA'AYAN program will make use of video, images - from the air and on land, mapping tools, artifacts and more in order to enhance and to supplement the learning experience. We are soon to embark production of our first unit and we are halfway to raising the required funds. If you are interested in helping a project of this type to flourish, please contact Barnea Selavan or David Willner for more details.
LandMinds has been producing podcasts since 2008. Originally broadcast on Israel National Radio, it is now essentially a monthly interview with Israel's leading archaeologists and scholars. Click below to hear the latest program featuring premier guide Aryeh Routenberg (English).
The De'Ara Tanach Map (DTM) is a pioneering satellite map of ancient Israel, designed for use in the classroom. East oriented and encapsulated in plastic, it allows interactive use by both educators and their students.
