A rare and exciting discovery: A bulla (seal impression) and a 2,600-year-old stamp bearing Hebrew names were uncovered in the City of David. The artifacts were discovered inside a public building that was destroyed during the destruction of the First Temple and were uncovered in archaeological excavations of the Givati Parking Lot in the City of David National Park in Jerusalem. The dig was conducted by archeologists from the Israel Antiquities Authority and Tel Aviv University.
The Valley of Hinnom is the discovery site of the oldest findings that are mentioned in verses of the Bible. Today, the National Park "Farm in the Valley" operates on the site, preserving ancient agricultural crafts through workshops and educational activities.
