(FOX NEWS) – The Israel Antiquities Authority (IAA) reported on
Monday that 3-year-old Ziv Nitzan came across a 3,800-year-old Canaanite amulet back in March.

The Canaanites were the original inhabitants of the Levant and
were descended from Noah’s grandson Canaan, according to
the Old Testament.

Omer Nitzan, Ziv’s sister, said her family was walking along
Tel Azeka, a hill in the Judaean Foothills, when the 3-year-old
spotted the artifact.
 

The area is the location of the ancient town of Azekah, which
is referenced in 1 Samuel 17:1 during a biblical battle between
David and Goliath.

(Fox News) – Archaeologists in Israel say that they have found
a clay seal mark that may bear the signature of the Biblical
Prophet Isaiah.

The 2,700-year-old stamped clay artifact was found during an
excavation at the foot of the southern wall of Jerusalem’s
Temple Mount. In ancient times a seal stamp, or bulla, was
used to authenticate documents or items.
