A lot has still to be done to uncover the marvels of the Dead Cities… An important French-Syrian mission is still working in the field. From 1976 to 78 the first excavations were carried out in the region by the French Institute of Near Eastern Archaeology in Beirut. Along with the excavation, Archaeologists Jean Pierre Sodini and Georges Tate continued surface surveys and sampling in the area with a new outlook, working through a new methodology which they called "archéologie serielle".
