Discovered in 2008 overlooking the Elah Valley, this broken shard of pottery may hold one of the earliest Hebrew texts ever found. Written in ink over 3,000 years ago, its 70 preserved letters come from a time many believed writing didn’t yet exist in ancient Israel. What this text says—and when it was written—raises big questions about early literacy, biblical history, and the world of the kings of Israel.
