Galilee ministry site uncovers tiny stone
A 12-year-old student participating in an archaeological excavation near Korazim in Israel discovered a rare pale-blue gemstone from the sixth century A.D., likely once part of an expensive Roman or Byzantine ring. The gemstone's presence in a wealthy estate suggests trade connections to broader Roman and Byzantine markets, indicating that the owner had access to international luxury goods. The site is linked to biblical and historical locations associated with Jesus' ministry.
