1,650-Year-Old Jewish Artifacts Unearthed in Israel

Archaeologists discover ancient coins and inscriptions in Lod, shedding light on the Jewish revolt against Roman rule.

A hoard of 94 coins dating back to 221-354 AD was found in a destroyed public building.
The discovery includes inscriptions in Greek, Hebrew, and Latin, and stone and marble artifacts.
The site likely served as living quarters for Jewish elders and reflects the violent suppression of the Gallus Revolt.
Absence of pig bones and specific inscriptions indicate the building's association with the Jewish community.
The findings highlight Lod's historical significance as a major Jewish center post-Second Temple destruction.
