(Times of Israel) Israel Antiquities Authority archaeologists said Monday that they have unearthed one of the largest oil lamp workshops discovered in Israel, dating back 1,600-1,700 years. The workshop in Beit Shemesh - unearthed ahead of the construction of a new neighborhood - contained hundreds of ancient ceramic oil lamps, which were the main method of lighting in ancient times. "A small number of the ceramic oil lamps are decorated with distinctively Jewish symbols such as the shofar, incense burner, and seven-branched menorah," said Benyamin Storchan of the Antiquities Authority. "The fragments tell us that Jewish life continued to exist in the Judean Hills" well after the failure of the Bar Kokhba revolt against the Romans in 132-136 CE. 2020-12-17 00:00:00Full Article
