Summary

Description
English: Dr. William Frederic Badè examining the Seal of Jaazaniah. (see associated text in image info at this link) Badè led the excavation at Tell en-Nasbeh through 5 seasons work 1925-1935. He published a paper on the onyx seal in 1933.
"Although not trained as an archaeologist, Badè carried out his excavation at Tell en-Nasbeh based on the highest standards of his day. He cleared about two thirds of the site, intending to test its identification with biblical Mizpah of Benjamin, which is now generally accepted. The method he employed was the so-called Reisner-Fisher method, dividing the tell into 10-meter squares and excavating in strips. Following the excavation, the strips were filled in. Badè kept meticulous records, including plans, photographs, and descriptions of about twenty-three-thousand artifacts, all of them drawn to scale.Aaron Brody.
