Jacobovici fell out of his chair
Jacobovici said he felt vindicated by the conference and by the call by several speakers for further study at the tomb, as well as for more research at a neighboring tomb that might hold further information. When the content of Jacobovici's film was first reported in the Post last February, the Jerusalem Municipality, which is responsible for the site, said that if a request were made to open the site, it would be considered.
vindicated? Interesting. I though that whole thing was making him money hand over fist. I know that many folks followed that hyped event and were eager to take it all in.
First Temple seal found
"The seal of the Temech family gives us a direct connection between archeology and the biblical sources and serves as actual evidence of a family mentioned in the Bible," she said. "One cannot help being astonished by the credibility of the biblical source as seen by the archaeological find."
After reading through some of the comments on the article, I guess I missed where the Jews are claiming anything of "sole-ownership", of the site/area as is eluded to. I do think that it's pretty kewl that an artifact (again) has been discovered with a link to Biblical information.
