Roman Era Stables Discovered



A family digging in their garden in the Israeli village of Eilabun have unwittingly uncovered a complex of underground stables, hewn into the soft rock in Roman times 2,000 years ago. The entrance to the stables, which had remained hidden some 9 feet below the ground, would previously have been at surface level. However, years of accumulated silt and dirt slowly covered the entrance of the system of caves, concealing them from view for centuries.



Archaeologists, led by Nir Distelfeld, told Haaretz that the man-made caves would also have been used for storage, given some of the remnants found there. But the strongest indicators that the carved rooms were used to house livestock are illustrated by holes chiseled into the cave walls. The animals would have been tied to the carved holes that formed a handle, with a stone trough laid below them for food and water.



Experts, once they were alerted to the discovery of the site, were able to discern the period the caves were in use by analyzing pottery shards left strewn across the ground. They dated the site to the first century A.D., around the time Jesus is believed to have lived in the area.



Eilabun, is the site of an ancient Jewish village and currently a recognized Israeli Arab local council in Galilee. It lies some 11 miles from Nazareth, where the New Testament claims the Christian messiah grew up. The Christian faith also holds that it was in Galilee, in modern-day northern Israel, that Jesus began his ministry.

That is interesting and informative. North America has a relatively short documented history of human civilization, but more is being discovered all the time. Our ancient history seems to be based more on dinosaurs.

Our area was scoured clean by glaciers then flooded when the last one melted to form a huge lake.

It's rather odd that it would fall into disrepair and not used for t least something!

Thank you...Israeli archeological news gets much better coverage and I don't have the translation problem like I do with Egyptian findings.

I'll have to see if China has released some pictures on a topic I found.
