Rare ancient treasures bearing Biblical names discovered in Jerusalem's City of David



Archaeologists in Israel have discovered ancient treasures, a rare clay seal mark and a 2,600-year-old stone stamp, in the remains of a structure likely destroyed by ancient Babylonians. The seal and stone stamp both feature ancient Hebrew script, including the first archaeological evidence of the Biblical name Nathan-Melech. The seal mark and stamp likely survived a major fire as evidenced by the presence of charred pottery shards nearby.
