D. DeMelt THE HILLS, DANIEL & THE LIONS. DEN

I interviewed Mr. and Mrs. Hill. They have come from many places. Some of the places are: Africa. Iran, West Iran, Irag, West Paki- stan, Australia, and Afghanistan.

Their favourite place was Iran because of the Middle East; it was the one that was coming more westernized.

Some of the exciting things were the archeologists being there from France and other places and the Hills were able to work with them and watch them. They dug down three generations before Christ. Daniel and the Lion were buried down there and also the ruins of Queen Ester's palace

was there.
