The promised land, divided according to the Lord's instructions given through Joshua.
This map shows the land that the Israelites actually occupied at Joshua's death. They had not fully driven out the pagan nations, who remained there as a snare to them in later years.
Today this is what remains of one of the fortified cities of Canaan. The land was filled with fortified cities such as this at the time of the conquest.
A "household god" sized idol from the conquest period, resembling an Egyptian god in the form of a bull. The golden calf which the Israelites made and worshiped at Sinai may have looked like this.
