FfFfFfFF 58,374 Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 A figurine dating back to the biblical period was found by chance by an 11-year-old on a family hike in the Negev, the Israel Antiquities Authority announced Tuesday. The artifact depicts a stylized bare-breast woman wearing a scarf with her hands folded under her chest and dates back to some 2,500 years ago. Archeologists at the IAA estimate that the object dates back to the 5th-6th century BCE, toward the end of the First Temple Period. Ceramic figurines of women "were common in the home and everyday life, like the hamsa [palm-shaped] symbol today, and they apparently served as amulets to ensure protection, good luck, and prosperity," curators Oren Shmueli and Debbie Ben Ami explained.

Helxig 45,434 Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 How the hell was something 2,500 years old just lying there on the surface in some random place waiting to be found??? Wouldn't it be buried after thousands of years and need to be carefully dug up? That just feels so weird to me. As if it's just sat there on the surface for two and a half thousand years untouched I'll be myself until they fūcking close the coffin. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As if it's just sat there on the surface for two and a half thousand years untouched It could be an erosion area of the desert where sediments typically do not deposit (they move somewhere else through wind/water), so tiny objects like this one could lie on the surface for a long time. But it's a wild guess lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
