guy Posted December 16, 2021 Report Share Posted December 16, 2021 (edited) Looted items, thought to be from the Bar Kochba revolt of 132-136 AD, have been recently recovered in a car trunk in Jerusalem. Quote “Experts at the Israel Antiquities Authority believe that the items were looted from a hidden complex in the Judean foothills that served as a refuge during the Bar Kochba revolt in 132-136 CE. A bronze jug with a depiction of a Roman banqueting scene showing a reclining figure holding a jug of wine was also recovered“ “The authority believes the artifacts were stolen from a Bar Kochba hiding complex located near the Tarqumiya border crossing in the southern West Bank.” https://www.algemeiner.com/2021/12/15/jerusalem-car-trunk-seizure-reveals-bronze-artifacts-taken-by-bar-kochba-rebels-from-roman-soldiers/ https://www.timesofisrael.com/stopping-a-suspect-car-police-find-ancient-items-bar-kochba-rebels-took-from-romans/amp/ Edited January 28 by guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
