Coins found in Israel building from 1,650 years ago speak volumes about Israel and the Jews



There is a building in the Israel town of Lod where a cache of coins were discovered dating back 1,650 years. Evidently, the person who lived there so long ago, left silver and bronze coins under the floorboards of the building and probably planned to go back and collect them at a later date. [H/T Jerusalem Post.]

The Lod Municipality and the Israel Antiquities Authorities (IAA) discovered the coins by chance while performing excavations of a destroyed Jewish public building. 

Experts said the coins are evidence of the last Jewish revolt against Roman rule in Israel – 1,650 years ago.

The dramatic discovery is the first-ever evidence in Lod from the Gallus Revolt, the last Jewish resistance against Roman rule, between 351 and 354 CE.

So this should give pause to those useful idiots who claim the Jews are occupying land belonging to so-called Palestinians, since they were there before Muhammed called his warriors together. But useful idiots will be useful idiots.

The coins are dated from 221- to 354 CE. It seems as if they were deliberately placed under the floorboards in the hopes of the owner returning to take them when the rebellious situation cooled down.

Though there is very little written evidence about this revolt, there are texts reporting that major Jewish communities such as Lod, Zipori and Tiberias were destroyed by the forces of Roman Caesar Flavius Constantinus Gallus.

The building where the coins were discovered

Beside finding coins, other impressive items were found such as stone and marble artifacts; Greek, Hebrew, and Latin inscriptions, and one inscription bearing the name of a Jewish man from a priestly family that is still being examined. 

What the excavators didn't find was the presence of pig bones because, unlike the Romans, the Jewish people are kosher and don't eat pork, a practice usurped by Islam thousands of years later, calling it halal.
