Cista en Achziv en la que se encontraron los restos de una familia en la ciudad fenicia de Achziv. El niño había sido enterrado con un collar de cuentas preciosas de oro, plata, ágata, ámbar y cornalina - Achziv se encuentra cerca de la frontera libanesa en la llanura costera del norte del actual Israel. Era una ciudad portuaria desde mediados del siglo XVI -VI aC. Cuando la familia vivía, la ciudad era cananea / fenicia, que era la cultura dominante en las costas mediterráneas © Shimon Barzilay

City Hall NetanyaNetanya, Israel, 1963-1965The Town Hall is the first building in the new Civic Centre for Natania—recreation and diamond industry centre some 25 km north of Tel Aviv on the Mediterranean coast.The building is in the centre of an enclosed pedestrian piazza, accessible from three directions: from two crossing roads and by a system of stairs and terraces rising from the seashore.The Town Hall is triangular in plan and pyramidal in section. The offices are grouped around a central court which is roofed by a space super-structure overhanging the whole building.The project develops further the Bat-Yam Town Hall experience in the arrangement of the various functions and in its climatic protection principle. Spatially and structurally the Netanya Town Hall is based on the truncated tetrahedron unit applied first in the Club Méditerranée in Achziv some six years before.
