Archaeologists' Findings
Bear Out Bible Stories
Archaeologists' findings ofttimea
serve to further establish the au
thenticity of the story of Jesus.
Only recently a group discovered
the name of Jesus, carved before
70 A.D. and perhaps by an eye
witness to the crucifixion, among
inscr iotions on 11 early Christian
burial urns found in a cave on the
Jerusalem-Bethlehem road.
The urns may provide the "oldest
archaeological record of Christian
ity" and an historical confirmation
of the trial and crucifixion of
Christ, the archaeologists said.
A sect of Hebrews, who followed
Jesus, denounced Pontius Pilate
and mourned the crucifixion of
their leader, was believed to have
left the writings on the urns in the
cave.
The Hebrew and Aramic inscrip
tions contained common names like
Mirian, Simeon, and Matti. The
Greek inscriptions and symbols be
side them contained references t*
Christianity *nd, it seems probably
to the crucifixion.
