Palestinian "Cave Dwellers" in Hebron by Eddie Gerald
Exhibit Abstract: Palestinian "cave-dwellers" are a local community who traditionally inhabit caves in the Hebron hills. Their lives have been almost unaffected by modern times for the past 200 years. In the last three decades, this small and traditional community has sometimes found itself in a fierce and violent battle over the land. In the 70s, Israel declared the area a "closed military area." The residents have been expelled from their land four times.
