A:According to Joshua chapter 8, Joshua destroyed the city of Ai after having captured and destroyed Jericho. However, the city of Ai did not exist at the time of Joshua. It had not existed for eight centuries before The Bible says that Joshua conquered it, having been abandoned in ruins around 2200 BCE. The very name Ai means 'Ruins', the name eventually given to the site by the Hebrew people because they never knew its old name and only ever knew it literally as ruins. Archaeologists say that neither Jericho nor Ai was conquered or destroyed by the Israelites.

Was Joshua part of Jericho or Israel when the walls came down?

The Book of Joshua tells us that Joshua was the leader of the Israelites when he brought down the wall of Jericho merely by having his men march around the city and make a great noise. Archaeologists say that the city had been abandoned a century before the time attributed to Joshua and that there were no walls for Joshua to bring down. They also say there was no military conquest of Jericho, as described in the Bible, at any time in the second millennium BCE.
