The Digital Archaeological Atlas of the Holy Land (DAAHL), a project spearheaded by Calit2's Center of Interdisciplinary Science for Art, Architecture and Archaeology (CISA3), got top billing on Google's Student Blog when it was featured as a daily post last month. Google recruited Arizona State University Affiliated Professor (and DAAHL collaborator) Steven Savage to write the entry, which encourages students to explore DAAHL's interactive, Google-app-based features to learn more about archaeological sites located in Israel, Palestine, Jordan, southern Lebanon, Syria and the Sinai Peninsula.

Savage, together with UCSD Professor of Archaeology/CISA3 Associate Director Tom Levy and San Diego SuperComputer Division Director Chaitan Baru, is hoping to expand on the idea of DAAHL to create a Mediterranean Archaeology Network, an international effort to create a Web-based 'portal' of information about archaeological sites along the Mediterranean Sea (read more about DAAHL and MedArchNet).
