Default Interesting find from Israel

http://www.nytimes.com/2008/07/06/wo...t/06stone.html

A stone with ink writing that dates from around the time of Jesus (give or take a hundred years). It might or might not (text is still being critically examined) mention a messiah and resurrection.

I'll be interested to read these publications when they become more widely available in English.
