Assif Am-David (Israel):
I've only been to the caves on Mount Carmel. They are a bit too heavily reconsructed to my taste. However, their discovery was scientifically important and there are informative texts available at the site.
What I don't understand is why the nearby Kebara Cave, where the so far best preserved Neanderthal skeleton was discovered, is not proposed in this serial nomination.
