Mr. LEONARD WOOLLEY: ' Ur of the Chaldees -the Royal Tombs and the Flood '

on 5XX Daventry

View in Radio Times

By now the newspapers and the exhibition at the British Museum have made most people to some extent familiar with the remarkable work that
Mr. Leonard Woolley has done in the ancient city of Abraham, Ur of the Chaldeea. In the course of his excavations there, Mr. Woolley has come upon many evidences for the reality of the Biblical Flood, which can be proved to have been, even if only a partial inundation, at least an historical event. In his talk tonight he will describe the curious breaks in the continuity in the history of Ur, as it is revealed in the relics that he has discovered in the Royal Tombs.
