NEVER-BEFORE SEEN INSCRIPTIONS FOUND

Split image of hall, coat of arms at site

(FOX NEWS) – Archaeologists recently unveiled a series of
strange, centuries-old inscriptions at the site believed to
be the location of the
Last Supper just in time for Easter.

The Room of the Last Supper, also known as the Cenacle,
is located on
Mount Zion in Jerusalem. The hall was built
by the Crusaders in the 12th century, though pilgrims have
venerated the site as early as the 4th century.

The recent discovery was announced by the Austrian
Academy of Science (OeAW) on April 16, with the help
of the Israel Antiquities Authority (IAA).

Archaeologists identified some 40 elements of graffiti,
including five coats of arms.

Just after 9 a.m. on April 19, 1995, a massive truck bomb
exploded outside the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.

The blast collapsed the north face of the nine-story building,
instantly killing more than 100 people and trapping dozens
more in the rubble.

Emergency crews raced to Oklahoma City from across the
country, and when the rescue effort finally ended two weeks
later the death toll stood at 168 people killed, including 19
young children who were in the building’s day-care center
at the time of the blast.
