The encounter between West Bank settlers and the archeologists who came to survey and excavate in their midst at the beginning of the 1980s was a formative moment that led to the settlers’ embrace of the field of archeology. The findings of the surveys and excavations that were conducted in the region, however, raised new insights regarding the early years of the Jewish People and the historical reliability of some of the biblical texts, forcing the settlers to face a complicated reality. Except for their selective adoption of researchers and of conclusions they viewed as supporting the biblical narrative, the settlers accused researchers who presented new conclusions of nontopical deviation and presented an alternative paradigm of their own that did not stand up to criticism. In contrast, researchers from the second generation of West Bank settlers have employed a more professional approach to archeology and do not see themselves as using it to prove identity or ownership. It appears that, in addition to academic influences and their sense of “indigenousness,” this reality is the product of a fundamental crisis that has befallen the religious-ideological public, the thrust of which has been a deconstruction of the harmony of the messianic vision, one expression of which has been the changing intergenerational approach to the role of archeology.

宗教犹太复国主义右翼以色列人：他们对犹太和撒马利亚考古研究的期望以及他们与由此产生的复杂发现抗衡的方式

20 世纪 80 年代初，西岸定居者与前来调查和挖掘的考古学家之间的相遇是一个形成性时刻，导致定居者拥抱考古学领域。然而，在该地区进行的调查和挖掘的结果对犹太人民的早年和一些圣经文本的历史可靠性提出了新的见解，迫使定居者面对复杂的现实。除了选择性地采用研究人员和他们认为支持圣经叙述的结论外，定居者还指责研究人员提出了偏离主题的新结论，并提出了他们自己的另一种经不起批评的范式。相比之下，第二代西岸定居者的研究人员采用了更专业的考古方法，并不认为自己用它来证明身份或所有权。看来，除了学术影响和他们的“本土性”意识之外，这种现实是宗教意识形态公众面临的根本危机的产物，其主旨是对弥赛亚愿景的和谐的解构。 ，其表现之一是考古学作用的代际方法不断变化。
