This 6,000 year-old copper crown from a Dead Sea cave is the world's oldest ever found. It was discovered in 1961 as part of the Nahal Mishar Hoard in a cave in the Judean Desert near the Dead Sea.
Ancient crown dates back to the Copper Age between 4000–3500 BC. The crown features vultures and doors protruding from the top. The enigmatic protuberances along its rim of vultures and building façades with squarish apertures and its cylindrical shape suggest that crown played a part in burial ceremonies for people of importance at that time. Crown was made with lost wax method.

A Virtual Visit to the Aleppo Synagogue
Photos of the Aleppo Synagogue taken in 1947, and a pair of VR headsets used to view a virtual recreation of the synagogue in 3D. Visiting the Israel Museum in Jerusalem recently, it was incredible to get to visit a number of synagogues from around the world, either partially recreated within the halls of the Museum, or in the case of the Aleppo Synagogue, in an incredible VR…

West Jerusalem
The relatively newer part of the city, the development of West Jerusalem was a focus for the newly formed state of Israel. It lacks the history of the Old City but makes up for it in a number of worthwhile sights, though most take some effort to get to as they’re spread out and not always close to public transport. The Machaneh Yehudah markets are among the best I’ve been to anywhere in the…

The Mysterious Prophecy of Isaiah 53
Exploring the ancient prophecy of Isaiah 53 is one of the most fascinating studies one can make. Some say it reveals the story of the Bible in just a few verses. As the heart of the mystery is identifying the one called "My servant."
Judaism most often identifies the suffering servant as the people of Israel who also have suffered throughout history. Those who believe Jesus was the Messiah of Israel see Isaiah 53 as predicting Jesus' death, burial, and resurrection, centuries before he lived. Can both interpretations find common ground?
This documentary looks for clues in history, archaeology, and even the Dead Sea Scrolls, seen here at The Israel Museum (13:00). Weigh the findings and gain a deeper understanding of Isaiah’s prophecy of hope.
Participants include Dr. Michael Rydelnik, Dr. Walter Kaiser, Dr. Michael Brown, and Dr. Darrell Bock.

Gal Gadot is holding a screening of Israelie propaganda at the museum of tolerance.
I'm not surprise that genocide barbie is doing that.
But please listen this is very important: please don't go to protest at the museum of tolerance to protest her 47 minute propaganda film.
I know this sounds like I'm telling people what to do but this is veryimportant that we need to listen:
What she's doing is a trap.
A Zionist trap by the IDF & Israeli military to get all Arabs, Muslims, Black, non-jewish, and brown folks protesting to say what they're doing is "Antisemitic" to derail the work everyone has been doing. So that they can film protesters and claim it's a "pro-hamas" rally to manipulate people.
JVP and other Jewish organizations are planning to demonstrate outside of the museum of tolerance.
The people that should demonstrate this should be Jewish allies to the Palestinian movement, their voices are extremely important in this situation.
If you are non-white or not Jewish, please sit this one out and do not attend. Let Jewish allies go.

Hundreds took over the steps of the Met Museum where artists revealed a massive quilt stitching together 65 artworks in solidarity with Gaza.
The activists with Artists Against Apartheid @againstapartheid.art pledge to use their artistry to challenge the art world’s complicity in Israel’s war.

In 2022, a 4500 year old statue of the Canaanite goddess Anat was unearthed in Khan Younis, Gaza strip, by a farmer and was stored in the Qasr Al-Basha Museum. [via BBC]
Qasr Al-Basha was originally a palace constructed in the 13th century by the Mamluk Sultan and was used as a residence for him and a seat of power for the Ottomans. In modern times, it has been used as a museum.
Israel destroyed Qasr Al-Basha. 4500 years of history, gone.
What did Anat? What did Qasr Al-Basha do? What did the hundreds of other, pricless historical relics do? The answer is: it was Palestinian history and it existed. Israel does not want Palestinian history to exist, because if Palestinian history exists, then it challenges the insanity driven claim that settlers are somehow more deserving of the land than its native people.
If somehow the 25 thousand deaths, over 10 thousand of which are children, isn’t enough to convince you that Israel is a terrorist state, is the total destruction of 4500 year old history enough to convince you that Israel is a terrorist state?

The problem we face runs far deeper than a lack of respect for one important institution. For over 75 years, the Western world recognised the singular evil of the Holocaust and the Nazi’s genocide of the Jews. But in recent years, these historic crimes have been routinely relativised. Indeed, you can see this clearly in the angry responses to the Auschwitz Museum. The museum was bombarded with tweets insisting that Israel’s war with Hamas is actually a ‘genocide’, that Israelis are the new Nazis and that the deaths of civilians in Gaza are somehow comparable to the Shoah.
This Holocaust relativism isn’t just confined to academics, activists or social-media influencers. World leaders are in on the act, too. President Erdoğan of Turkey received warm applause last week for a speech in which he compared Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu to Hitler, and claimed that Israel treats Gazans like the Nazis treated Jews. This week, the South African government lodged an accusation of genocide against Israel in the International Court of Justice (which Israel will challenge).The memory of the Holocaust is not only being downplayed here. It is also being weaponised to attack and delegitimise the world’s only Jewish state.
Encouragingly, after revealing the loss of 7,000 followers, the Auschwitz Museum announced that it had gained 53,000 new followers in a single day. Clearly, there are many decent-minded people out there who still recognise the unique significance of the Holocaust. But there is still a concerning minority who are determined to relativise it, to downplay it and to use ‘Never Again’ as a weapon against Israel. We cannot afford to let this bigotry fester and grow.
