An Israeli archaeologist said Thursday that a ceramic shard found in the ruins of an ancient town south of Jerusalem bears the oldest Hebrew inscription ever discovered.
The find could provide an important glimpse into the culture and language of the Holy Land at the time of the Bible.
Archeologist Yossi Garfinkel of Hebrew University said the five lines of faded characters written 3,000 years ago suggest a powerful Israelite kingdom existed at the time of King David.
