Clay fragment emboldened with what is believed to be a letter from the court of Jerusalem to the court of Egypt, 3,300 years ago
Israeli archaeologists have discovered a clay fragment emboldened with a letter apparently written in Jerusalem more than 3,300 years ago, believed to be the oldest example of writing ever found in the city.
The letter written from the court of a king in Jerusalem to his counterpart in Egypt could prove the Jerusalem mentioned in ancient writings actually existed in the same location as the modern city.
