Endnote 3 – Layers of Ancient Jerusalem

This is the first time that a seal, decorated with an image of a lion together with a Hebrew name, was found at Jerusalem, recalling the famous seal of Shema Servant of Jeroboam, king of Israel from Megiddo. See Tallay Ornan, Shlomit Weksler-Bdolah, Shua Kisilevitz and Benjamin Sass, “Two Hebrew Seals and a Bulla, One of the Seals Depicting a Roaring Lion, from the Western Wall Plaza Excavations, Jerusalem,” Atiqot (in press).
