The Complex Fabric of the Holy City

This is one in a series of very short videos in support of "Jerusalem 1000–1400: Every People Under Heaven," on view at The Metropolitan Museum of Art from September 26, 2016, through January 8, 2017. All of the videos, but especially this one, illustrate  the multilayered ethnic and religious density of Jerusalem. I am sharing these videos with our Global Studies teacher because of the integrity of their content and the brevity in which they communicate it.
