Archeology 201 Guidelines

If Indiana Jones happened to be a member of Tweb, this is where he'd hang out.

Welcome to the Archeology forum. Were you out doing some gardening and dug up a relic from the distant past? would you like to know more about Ancient Egypt? Did you think Memphis was actually a city in Tennessee?

Well, for the answers to those and other burning questions you've found the right digs.

Our forum rules apply here too, if you haven't read them now is the time.

  • Early Image of Jesus Found in Egyptian Tomb

    Jesus of Nazareth may be the subject of an image from the sixth century, found in an Egyptian structure underneath the ground.

    I found this pretty interesting.

    I THINK they mean "Possible image of Jesus Christ found in Egyptian tomb dig". (as opposed to the image being "possibly found") Unfortunately, when I clicked on a link in that article, it launched a whole series of ads and banners.
    The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

        Sorry about that. I have an ad blocker on my browser so I didn't see those popups :|.

          Yeah, me too -- that's how I know it was so ad laden -- my popup blocker kept whining and crying.

                The grammar is poor, but that may be due to translation.

                    Lol. You did warn me about it lol. Glad he has yet to catch on to me though. Out of all of that, he catches grammar mistakes .

                      I was talking about the article, not Jesse. The subject/verb agreement n particular is atrocious. Doesn't look very "scholarly".

                        It's probably just lazy writing on their part.

                          Yeah, but I have a tendency to equate that to the quality of their "research / reporting".

                            You know, you seem to be right. I just Googled "Early Image of Jesus Found in Egyptian Tomb" and it seems none of the sites report it quite like they do. So there is probably a better link than the one I just supplied.
