LONDON, Nov. 17 (UPI) — A Roman settlement filled with ancient artifacts and human remains has been unearthed on a west London building site, archaeologists say.

Excavations at the Syon Park site in west London uncovered more than 11,000 Roman items and part of one of Roman Britain’s most important roads just a foot and a half below the ground, the BBC reported Wednesday.

Archaeologists initiated the dig ahead of the construction of a new hotel.

Experts from the Museum of London Archaeology recovered about 11,500 fragments of pottery, 100 coins and jewelry.

“We were extremely fortunate to discover such a comprehensive repertoire of Roman finds and features so close to the surface,” senior museum archaeologist Jo Lyon said. “They tell us a great deal about how the people of this village lived, worked and died.

“It helps us build a picture of the Roman landscape and shows how the busy metropolis of Londinium connected with the rest of Roman Britain,” she said.

The Roman settlement had remained remarkably undisturbed for almost 2,000 years, she said.

A section of one of Roman Britain’s most important roads, linking Londinium with the Roman town of Silchester and an ancient tributary of the Thames, was also uncovered.

Loved-up newly-weds Michelle Heaton and Hugh Hanley were forced to cool off in the sea when their passion got too hot to handle on honeymoon.

The 31-year-old former Liberty X singer and her Irish personal trainer and advertising sales manager husband were enjoying the last moments of their extended break before flying back to their Dublin home today.

The pair got married in the Bahamas last month and followed it immediately after with a honeymoon taking in Las Vegas and Los Angeles. 

Surf’s up: Michelle Heaton and Hugh Hanley cool their ardour in the waves

Shock horror: The pair feign surprise at an approaching wave

The pictures of them here were taken during a spell at the seaside in Malibu.

Posting on her official Twitter page today, she gushed: “On way back home from honeymoon. What an amazing 5weeks. I am the happiest girl ever. My husband Hugh is my everything. Now, back to work!x’

Now a ‘celebrity stylist’ at a Dublin beauty parlour as a reality TV star – she appeared on Celebrity Big Brother last year – Michelle’s wedding to Hugh was splashed all over the pages of OK! magazine.

Not like Morecambe: Michelle paddles in the Pacific in a coral pink bikini

Water sports: The loved-up couple splash around in the surf

Then just last week, she posted up pictures on her Facebook of her getting a tattoo to commemorate her marriage.

The singer proudly showed off the inking, which read ‘from this moment 19.07.10′ to signify the date she married second husband Hugh Hanley.

She was previously married to former boyband star Andy Scott Lee, but they split in June 2008 after less than two years of marriage after she cheated on him.

Despite being best friends with Katie Price, the model also known as Jordan however failed to make Michelle’s wedding on the paradise island.

Leib MoscovitzManaging EditorJSIJ

1.On the Origins of the Term Nevi’im RishonimMichael Avioz

The biblical books of Joshua, Judges, Samuel, and Kings are collectively known in Hebrew as Nevi’im Rishonim (Former Prophets). A review of the evidence from earliest times through the Middle Ages leads to the conclusion that the designation was coined by the Soncino family, who printed those books with Rabbi David Kimchi’s commentary in 1488.

2. Rabbi Meir and the Samaritans: The Differences Between the Accounts in the Yerushalmi and the BavliItzhak Hamitovsky

This article seeks to show how the Babylonian sources placed much greater emphasis than their Palestinian parallels on the role Rabbi Meir played in connection with the changing Halakhic status of the Samaritan community. This conclusion is based on an analysis of the tannaitic sources dealing with Rabbi Meir’s relation to the Samaritans and a comparison between the Babylonian sugyot in BK 38b and Hullin 5b-6a and their Palestinian counterparts. It is suggested that according to both the tannaitic sources and the Palestinian Amoraic sources, Rabbi Meir did not make any significant contribution to the halakhic campaign against the Samaritans. Rather, it appears from these sources that Rabbi Shimon b. Eleazar, Rabbi Meir’s student, played a significant role in this campaign, during the late second century CE. The redactors of the Babylonian sources, following literary patterns attested elsewhere in the Babylonian Talmud, attributed Rabbi Shimon b. Eleazar’s position to his teacher, Rabbi Meir. If my analysis is correct, the attribution of this position to Rabbi Meir constitutes yet another example of the transformation of Palestinian stories by Babylonian sources in light of the concerns of the Babylonian redactors.

3. Collections of Halakhah or Analytic Clarifications in the Babylonian Talmud?Menahem Katz

Most of the Babylonian Talmud consists of sugyot, analytical discourses which form complete and closed structures. Another type of structure found in the gemara is the collection of sayings of a particular amora or of the stam. Rashi called sugyot of this type piskei shemu‘ot or piskei halakhot (Sukkah 3b, Pesahim 9b), terms which reflect the nature of these passages – apparently random collections of rulings, edited (according to Rashi) by the school of Rav Ashi.

This article discusses two such collections – Sukkah 3b-4b and Bava Kamma 26a-27a. It argues that these sugyot reflect a remarkable combination of analytical reasoning and complex literary design. In these collections of sayings, the sages of the Talmud discuss real, concrete cases, through which they explore basic concepts of Jewish law. We cannot treat these sugyot as simple collections of shemu‘ot. Rather, we must observe how they analyze in great detail the exact nature of the halakhic concepts they address.

4. Welfare and Education vs. Leadership and Redemption: The Stories about Rabbi and Rabbi Hiyya as an Example of the Image of the Tannaitic Past in the Babylonian TalmudMoshe Lavee

This article proposes a reconstruction of the Babylonian perspective on the relations of R. Hiyya and Rabbi. We argues that shared motifs, structures and expressions justify reading a group of scattered traditions and stories as if they belong to a single cluster, which may be read coherently. A comparison to parallel traditions in rabbinic compilations from the land of Israel shows the Babylonian character of this reconstructed story. Thus, this story should not be read as reflecting the actual history of the Tannaim, but rather as expressing contrasting values and impressions that were later associated with the figures of Rabbi and Rabbi Hiyya. Rabbi represents tough political leadership, which is expressed, among other things, by restricting the spread of Torah study and by Messianic aspirations. Rabbi Hiyya symbolizes opposition to Rabbi, emphasizing Torah education for the masses, social concern, and investment in the immediate future – the next generation. The reading strategy suggested in this paper seeks to integrate two different approaches to the study of rabbinic literature: the literary approach to reading rabbinic stories, and the study of the contribution of late redactors, transmitters and editors to the formation of the Babylonian Talmud.

5. The Altar as God’s House: A Study in Maimonides’ Temple PerspectivesItzhak Hershkowitz

The altar has a unique and complex status in the Bible, since two incompatible characteristics are attributed to it: it is depicted both as a portable sanctified object and as a stationary building. These opposing characteristics are evident in Maimonides’ laws of the Temple (Hilkhot Beit Ha-Behirah). However, when Maimonides molds these rulings into a coherent codex of decrees, he prefers the building aspect of the altar, although he bases several rulings about the Temple, especially those concerning building materials and methods, on the conception of the portable altar.

Thus, Maimonides asserts that the altar is the fundamental essence of the Temple. Therefore, even if the Temple is not fully constructed, the presence of the altar alone is sufficient to provide a functional House of God. This view differs from that of the talmudic Sages, who regarded the altar solely as a temporary alternative to the Temple.

These conclusions derive from a textual, contextual, and linguistic study of Maimonides’ writings concerning the relationship between the altar, the Temple’s outer shell, and the other vessels that were utilized in the divine service.

6. Ramban’s Approach Toward the Plain Meaning of the Biblical Text vs. his Commitment to HalakhaYossi Erel

In his commentary on the Torah, Ramban displays a deep commitment to the Halakha as it was determined by the Sages in the Talmud and in post-Talmudic traditions. Ramban often demurs when Rashi presents a Rabbinic interpretation that is not in accordance with the Halakha. However, the Ramban’s commitment to Halakha sometimes clashes with his parallel commitment to the plain meaning of the text (peshat), and in these instances the effort to be faithful to both approaches and to reconcile them creates a hermeneutic challenge.

The first two sections of this article present two hermeneutic techniques that help Ramban meet this challenge. The first technique, frequently found in his commentary on the Torah, is the principle of deriving two Halakhot from one verse: the Halakha according to the peshat, and the Halakha according to the Sages. This technique was not accepted by the Ba‘alei Tosafot in France, whose interpretation according to the peshat ignores the Halakha.

The second technique, Ramban’s main approach in analyzing Halakhic passages in the Torah, is one of synthesis between the two contradictory principles.

The third section of this article focuses on excerpts from Ramban’s works on the Talmud, in which he tries to find the source of the Halakha in the plain meaning of Biblical verses even when the Talmud does not cite a Biblical verse.

The fourth section returns to Ramban’s commentary on the Torah. Here Ramban looks for the Biblical verses which were the source of the Halakha even when the Sages cited midrashic sources. Indeed, Ramban constructs an innovative Halakhic framework with regard to the Sabbath and a number of other subjects on the basis of Biblical verses.

The fifth and final section of this article analyzes Ramban’s synthetic approach within the framework of his historical and cultural background and milieu, comparing it to that of the Ba‘alei Tosafot in France on the one hand, and to the Sephardic halakhic tradition in Spain and North Africa on the other. We also point out the directions of the developments that might have been influenced by Ramban’s dispute with the Christians, which may have influenced his attempt to combine two parallel approaches in his commentary on the Torah.

7. Hyperbolic Language in the MishnahChanan Gafni

One of the heated debates in nineteenth-century Jewish scholarship concerned the Talmud’s interpretation of the Mishnah, which to many seemed to deviate from the plain, original sense of the Mishnaic text. In this context, a fascinating discussion was devoted to a number of Mishnayot that, according to the Talmud, employed hyperbolic language (leshon guzma). All of these Mishnayot involved various aspects of Second Temple ritual and, according to the Amoraim, all used the number 300 in a rather arbitrary way. In the nineteenth-century debate surrounding these mishnayot, some interpreted them literally, without ascribing a tendency to hyperbole to the Tannaim. Others, determined to defend the traditional interpretation of the Mishnah at any cost, rejected these attempts. As in many other cases, nineteenth-century scholarship involved not only critical concerns, but ideological considerations as well.

8. On the Meaning of šglAron Pinker

The etymology of šgl is obscure. Šgl is a verb and noun that occurs a number of times in the Hebrew Bible and has diametrically opposing meanings. A strong late tradition exists for understanding the verb šgl as an obscene term for copulation. Our analysis of biblical and Talmudic sources suggests that the obscenity of šgl (verb and noun) stems from its relation to the anus. Specifically, the verb šgl is “to sodomize a woman” and the noun šgl is “a woman that copulates anally, as a bitch.” In some cases in the Hebrew Bible that deal with foreign royalty, a borrowed Akkadian term šgl is used in the sense of “queen, lady.” The Hebrew šgl and the Akkadian term appear to be unrelated.

9. The Last Oral Torah? The Division of the Torah into ‘AliyotEphraim Stulberg

The origins of the present-day system by which the weekly Torah reading is divided into seven rigorously delineated aliyot are shrouded in mystery. While recent scholarship has emphasized that standardization of this practice is a relatively recent development, rabbinic literature contains no programmatic statements describing the principles upon which the modern division was founded. This article attempts to define a set of fundamental principles that appear to have guided the formulation of the aliyah divisions currently employed in synagogues throughout the world. It argues that aliyah breaks in both narrative and legal sections were determined to a surprisingly large extent by midrashic considerations, conjoining seemingly unrelated texts in order to convey connections between them that would otherwise go unnoticed. More significantly, perhaps, the aliyah divisions were also manipulated so as to heighten audience interest in the reading, either by creating an atmosphere of suspense or by consistently selecting expressions of blessing with which to conclude aliyot. This final point raises important implications for a reappraisal of audience response to the Torah reading and its importance in the lives of its listeners.

*Phew~* It has been quite a while since my last travel log. Lots of things happen, assignments taken, albums completed for the past few months. Let’s pick up the logs where I left off, shall we?

Destination 6: Paris

I bet the first thing that came into your mind is, “That’s one heck of a trip from Brussels to Paris” right? The truth is, it was only a one and a half hour journey by bus. Or maybe, the bus simply took a totally different route from what Google Maps suggest. I can’t really tell as I spent the time sleeping through out the journey.

Cutting the long story of how we ended up lodging in a hotel in Drancy short, the first stop we made was at the Musee Du Louvre.

It was simply amazing to see an unconventional architectural design being put in the middle of building from the old centuries.

and it would be a waste not to have 1 lovely shot with the siblings with the museum as the background. 

Across Musee Du Louvre is the Tuileries Gardens. The mini Arc de Triomphe “Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel ” is located in this park, so does these wicked spots for portraitures.

Yeap, that’s our Lomo ambassador with *her* LC+A. As of now, she has a Holga and a Fisheye 2 in her collection.

Being tourists, we simply can’t resist hopping into those cost-friendly Hop-On Hop-Off buses to bring us around the city. Below are some shots from the top of the bus.

Next was to visit Petite Palais located at Avenue Winston Churchill.

As it was new year’s eve, we planned to stick around Paris to celebrate new year. I got to admit that Paris was very generous with lightings that night.

Arc de Triomphe de l’Étoile

But sadly, there were no fireworks and I don’t even get a decent shot of the new year celebration that night due to frustration. Even the locals were not sure when we asked if there would be fireworks display to celebrate the new year. To make things worst, around 12.30am, people start to leave the celebrations spots and rush to the nearby metro stations. It was too jam packed inside the tunnel, we had to walk around the town to find a taxi for a ride home. Yet, Zura manage to strike a pose before leaving the metro station.

What happened next, was us walking around Paris to find a taxi, only to get one at 3.30am. *Sigh~* 

Anyway, the next day, we went to Trocadéro for a final view of the Eiffel Tower.

 and 1 tourist pose by my brother, Shah. Those who have reached Paris would definitely see this kind of attempts all over the park surrounding the Eiffel Tower. Haha!

That’s all folks. If you have any “New Year in Paris” memories, share your stories in the comments section ay?

The Marlborough Express

I sure appreciate the efforts that are made by community folk societies.

A guitarist who describes himself as a “Pense Saskatchewan native” is playing in Blenheim tomorrow night.

Joel Fafard is the final guest of the Marlborough Folk Music Society before it goes into recess.

In a brief email interview, Fafard said he was a guest of the society when he first visited Blenheim in 2007.

“I sure appreciate the efforts that are made by community folk societies.

“I think they offer an important bit of culture to their towns that would be lost without them.”

Fafard traces his culture back to Pense Saskatchewan, a small town with about 500 permanent residents in Canada.

A Fafard press release describes him as a largely self-taught musician who uses only his fingers and a slide to create guitar compositions that are intricate, rustic and “uniquely human”.

Songs are often punctuated in concerts with tongue-in-cheek stories about life as a small-town romantic.

Based now on Canada’s Sunshine Coast, Fafard is working on his seventh CD. He describes his musical influences as blues, bluegrass, old country, oldtime, rock and roll and Celtic music.

“I have written almost all of the music for my first six CDs. My [new one] will be my take on a bunch of traditional Americana songs.”

Live performance venues for Fafard include festivals, theatres, folk clubs, blues and sometimes jazz clubs. “And even house concerts, which I really love.”

Fafard said he was looking forward to getting back to New Zealand and described it as his “favourite country” to tour in.

“I love the people, the food, the weather and the geography.

“I wish I could move there. I could probably even learn to love rugby – although it would take some effort as I am quite an ice hockey nut.”

Almost everyone has heard travel horror stories. From robberies to scams, it is important to be informed about what to possibly expect on your luxury vacations. The most common stories of being ripped off abroad involve currency, purchasing “priceless artifacts” and being trapped by taxis. Take a look at these common ways people are either overcharged or ripped off, and use these strategies to stay in control of your money!

Currency Fraud

One of the most difficult parts about traveling to other countries is using foreign currency. There are several ways to handle this issue; the most important one is to be somewhat familiar with the exchange rate. For example, one Euro is the equivalent of $1.50 USD. Also, be familiar with what the local currency looks like. A common tourist scam is being approached in the airport or in front of a hotel by what appears to be a fellow tourist. They may wish to exchange some of their “left over” currency for dollars. They may attempt to sell you counterfeit currency, or offer a high rate of exchange. Do not be taken in by such people. The only safe way to exchange currency is through a bank, your local American Express Office, or the purser aboard any luxury world cruise.

Purchasing Antiquities

When traveling to countries with rich ancient histories on a luxury travel vacation, you may be tempted to take a piece of it home with you. In countries such as China, Egypt and Britain, there are a number of licensed and unlicensed antiquities dealers that will offer to sell you some of the greatest finds of the century. But buyer beware, even experts can be fooled by fakes. Not to mention that most countries do not allow exports of most pieces of their country’s history. So, if you did purchase the find of the century, you will probably not be able to take it home. If you are dedicated to taking something home with you, go to a well-known and licensed antiquities dealer. Your tour guide or cruise purser should have the best recommendations. Be sure to ask the right questions, such as delivery options, legality issues and get a receipt of sale.

Taxi Fraud

Most travelers get around their destinations via taxis, unless they are on a guided excursion from their luxury world cruise

Make a Trip to Morocco with Special Tour Price Published 03/16/2010

(Jenkintown, Pennsylvania) – Stroll the streets of cosmopolitan Casablanca, roam the ancient ruins in Volubilis, and walk through Fez’s walled medina.

Travelers can now visit one of North Africa’s most popular travel destinations, Morocco, for the lowest price ever offered by Friendly Planet Travel. For just $1,799 you can experience eight nights of the dazzling mosaic of Arab, Berber, African, and European cultures on the Treasures of Morocco tour. This includes everything you need for a memorable Moroccan experience, including round-trip airfare from JFK International airport (other gateways are also possible at price supplement), all intra-Morocco ground transportation, deluxe and first-class hotels, breakfast and dinner daily, and comprehensive tours led by professional, English-speaking guides.

“A medley of cultures not found anywhere else on earth puts Morocco in a league of its own,” says Peggy Goldman, President of Friendly Planet Travel. “Where else can you sunbathe on both Atlantic and the Mediterranean beaches, see magnificent imperial cities, Islamic architecture, Roman antiquities, and mountain villages in only one week? Even the most experienced globetrotter will discover something new and unforgettable in Morocco. And don’t let our ridiculously low price fool you. This is no cost-cutting tour package. Regardless of our low prices, we always provide superior accommodations, professional tour guides, and more.”

You’ll begin your journey in Morocco’s capital of Rabat. Stretch your legs and visit the 12th century Tower of Hassan, then walk through the medina to visit the Oudaias Casbah and take in its hilltop ocean views. From there, tours continue in Volubilis, Meknes, and Fez, the oldest city in Morocco. The city of Fez is one of the most intact and impressive medieval cities in the Arab world. It visibly illustrates the contrast between the old city and the French-planned new city, making sightseeing all the more fascinating.

Through the snow-topped Atlas Mountains and alpine towns, you’ll get a taste of Morocco’s European influence in the architecture seen in route to Marrakesh. Upon arrival, the tour takes you to the Djemaa el-Fna, Marrakesh’s main square. It seems straight out of Hollywood, with peddlers, musicians, dancers, acrobats, magicians, snake charmers, and storytellers galore-a must-see on any Morocco tour. Spend two full days exploring the markets, touring the Koutoubia Minaret, Bahia Palace, and more.

The tour’s last stop is Morocco’s main port, Casablanca. It is home to one of the largest mosques in the world, Hassan II Mosque, one of the few in the world that lets non-Muslims enter. Before you depart back to the United States, you’ll be treated to a farewell Moroccan dinner.

Friendly Planet Travelers also have the option of extending their trip to Rome for only $379 (November, December, January, February departures) or $499 (September, October, March departures). The extension includes airfare, an arrival transfer, three nights in the four-star Hotel Atlantico and buffet breakfast daily. The Hotel Atlantico is superbly located, near the central (Termini) train station, and within walking distance of many of Rome’s major sites and attractions.

Finding a meaningful present for that special guy in your life can prove to be quite challenging. Whether he’s your dad, brother, boyfriend or husband, nothing screams ‘boring’ or ‘unimaginative’ than yet another tie or sweater. What’s the point of giving someone a gift they can easily buy for themselves?

Every guy loves a gadget. A GPS navigator definitely fits the bill for the gear-head in your life. He’ll be secretly pleased to receive it even as he loudly protests that he never gets lost. A GPS device gives a guy the feeling he’s fully in control of his destination, and by extension, his destiny. Variations on the theme include a universal remote, smartphones and Kindles. You’ll be sure to catch him fiddling with it even if he doesn’t count reading as one of his hobbies.

Maybe your intended gift recipient is a great fan of the outdoors who goes camping at every opportunity. An ultra-bright lantern may be just the thing to help him keep an eye out for potentially hostile nightlife. If a lantern seems too old-fashioned, you might want to get him night-vision goggles instead. Caution is advised as any gear-heads in the vicinity may be overcome with jealousy.

A barbecue grill is something most guys look forward to owning. Take a walk around the mall and see for yourself. Every person who stops to fiddle with a barbecue on display is of the male gender! A roaster/smoker/grill setup that comes with accurate temperature control and readout is everything most guys could hope for. Accessories such as a portable, outdoor mini-fan to keep the cook cool will also be welcomed.

Giving a guy a wallet as a gift can seem boring, but what if it was made from repurposed materials? Forget the luxury buckskin leather for a moment and consider one made from recycled inner tubes. Rubber tires take an age to decompose, so you can do your bit for the earth and get something the environment-loving man in your life will appreciate.

A compact telescope would be the perfect gift if your loved one is sure his destiny is foretold in the stars. It only needs to be pointed at a particular star or constellation before identification is made with a click of a button. Its GPS function pinpoints celestial bodies you want to see. Sure, it may be astronomy for lazy people, but you can’t help but be impressed when it tells you trivia and history connected to the star in question!

At the end of the day, gift-giving is about showing how much you care about the recipient. While the ideas described here aren’t cheap, the gratitude they inspire will last a long while. Surely no one wants to be known as a Scrooge on the most wonderful time of the year?

21 décembre 2009Egypt Antiquities Chief Zahi Hawass to Demand Nefertiti Bust

CAIRO (AP).- Egypt’s antiquities chief said Sunday he will formally demand the return of the 3,300-year-old bust of Queen Nefertiti from a Berlin museum after confirming it was sneaked out of Cairo through fraudulent documents.

Zahi Hawass, the head of Egypt’s Supreme Council of Antiquities, has been aggressively campaigning to reclaim treasures that he says were stolen from Egypt and purchased by some of the world’s leading museums.

Hawass’ campaign yielded a huge success this week with the return of painted wall fragments from a 3,200-year-old tomb from the Louvre in Paris. Hawass had cut ties with the French museum and suspended its excavation in southern Cairo to pressure it to return the artifacts.

Highlighting the importance of the efforts, Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak traveled to Paris to oversee the handover of the fragments, which arrived in Cairo Tuesday.

The limestone bust of Nefertiti, wife of famed monotheistic Pharaoh Akhenaton, topped the list Hawass has drawn for high-profile items he wants back.

Since the bust was displayed in Germany in 1924, Egypt has been demanding its return. German authorities have declined, saying the bust is too fragile to move.

A statement from Hawass’ office said Friederike Seyfried, the director of Berlin’s Egyptian Museum and Papyrus Collection, presented documents held by the museum proving the bust was sneaked out of Egypt illegally.

“The national committee to reclaim antiquities will hold an emergency meeting … to examine official steps to demand the final return of the Nefertiti bust from Berlin to Egypt,” the statement said.

The documents include a protocol signed by the German excavator of the bust and the Egyptian Antiquities Service headed by Gustave Lefevre in 1913, a year after the statue was unearthed in Amarna in southern Egypt.

In the documents, the object was listed as a painted plaster bust of a princess. But in the diary of the German excavator Ludwig Borchardt, he clearly refers to it as the head of Nefertiti — whose name means the beautiful one has come.

“This proves that Borchardt wrote this description so that his country can get the statue,” Hawass’ statement said. “These materials confirm Egypt’s contention that (he) did act unethically with intent to deceive.”

The existence of these documents was known to archaeologists. It was not clear why the museum decided to hand them over to Egypt now.

Hawass’ statement quoted the director of the museum as saying the authority to approve the return of the bust to Egypt lies with the Prussian Cultural Heritage and the German culture minister. Seyfried will act as a liaison, the statement said.

Nefertiti is the 14th century B.C. wife of Akhenaton, who initiated a new monotheistic religion that involved the worship of the sun. Her bust was recently moved back to Berlin’s Neues Museum from the adjacent Atles Museum, part of a cluster of five art halls that make up one of Berlin’s most familiar landmarks.

Thousands of antiquities were spirited out of the country during Egypt’s colonial period and afterward by archaeologists, adventurers and thieves.

CAIRO — Egyptian police on Friday arrested nearly 50 members of the opposition Muslim Brotherhood who were staging anti-Israel demonstrations, a security official said.

They were rounded up after weekly prayers as they demonstrated against Israeli plans to build Jewish settlements in Arab east Jerusalem and place two West Bank shrines on a list of Israeli heritage sites.

The Brotherhood had urged Egyptians to take part in the protests across the country and the arrests took place in several provinces, the source said.

He said protesters chanted slogans denouncing Israel’s plans as well as “the silence of Arab governments.”

Friday’s arrests were the latest targeting the Brotherhood ahead of upper house elections in April and lower house elections in October. The Islamists have accused the authorities of cracking down on them ahead of the polls.

Brotherhood lawyer Salah Abdel Maqsud said that among those detained were “prominent figures who could run in the elections.”

In February deputy leader Mahmud Ezzat was among 16 Brotherhood members arrested in a move denounced by the group as well as by international human rights watchdogs.

The New York-based Human Rights Watch said February’s arrests dealt “a blow at hopes for genuinely free elections.”

The Muslim Brotherhood is banned in Egypt but is tolerated, and police regularly arrest its activists.

Despite the ban, the Brotherhood controls a fifth of seats in parliament after it fielded candidates as independents in a 2005 election.

Police rounded up hundreds of Brotherhood activists last year. The group, founded in 1928, has renounced violence and says it wants to establish an Islamic state through peaceful means.

Israel’s plans to include The Tomb of the Patriarchs in Hebron and Rachel’s Tomb in Bethlehem on a list of its heritage sites and to build new homes for Jewish settlers has triggered both Arab and international criticism.
