Archeological discoveries (and inventions, Helenesque and otherwise) have been piling up …
Asia Times reports on joint efforts of Israel and the Vatican to excavate, preserve, and promote holy sites.
CNS gives a history (with photos) of Rome’s ancient Mamertine prison, where, according to tradition, St. Peter was incarcerated.
See photos of Psalms inscribed in a cave near Nag Hammadi in Egypt (where the Gnostic cache was found).
The Jerusalem Post visited the Jewish catacombs at Rome’s Villa Torlonia (echoes of my book Signs and Mysteries: Revealing Ancient Christian Symbols, illustrated by Lea Marie Ravotti).
A manuscript found in an Ethiopian monastery could be world’s oldest illustrated Christian work — fourth-century Gospels in Ge’ez.
And I’m sure you’ve read and heard all about the supposed “discovery” of John the Baptist’s relics in Bulgaria.
great to hear you on relevant radio!
Thanks, Jim!
