History buffs: biblical king's clay seal found in Jerusalem

Manach

As per BBC Site:
"
Israeli archaeologists say they have found a 2,700-year-old piece of clay inscribed with a biblical king's seal.
It is thought the oval bulla, which is 13mm (0.5in) wide, was once attached to a papyrus document signed by Hezekiah, one of the kings of Judah.
It was found by a team from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem at the site of an ancient dump, beside the wall that surrounds Jerusalem's Old City.

Very interesting, thanks.

Pffft... "winged sun" my ar$e. That is obviously The Flying Spaghetti Monster on the seal.
Proof at last that Pastafarianism is the one true church, and that His Noodly Highness has been looking down on us from the heavens from time immemorial. Spread the good news!

MOD NOTE

Less of the vulgar language.

Also please don't derail the thread.

Thanks for your attention.
