    The ring was first found among hundreds of other artifacts in 1968–1969 excavations directed by archaeologist Gideon Foerster, at a section of Herod’s burial tomb and palace at Herodium that was used during the First Jewish Revolt (66–73 CE). Recently, current dig director Roi Porat asked that the engraved copper sealing ring be given a thorough laboratory cleaning and scholarly examination.

    They had this ring for 50 years before they scrubbed it down and took a good look.

    Let's equate this to SBR.

    If JJ = Jesus Christ...who would the Apostles be at SBR?

    The New York Times article in the original post did say they found Pilate's name on the ring, but then goes on to state, "The report says it is unlikely that the ring belonged to Pilate, in part because such simple rings usually belonged to soldiers and lesser officials, not to someone as wealthy and powerful as a prefect." I guess we'll never really know.

    The same types of rings would of been worn by people below him. Chances are it won't be his. This is still a VERY important archeological discovery though and worth the excitement.

    I have the water Jesus walked on in a jar.

    Jibby has already offered $1000 but I would entertain higher offers.

    Snowball, Is there any truth to the existence of PlanetX ? If so, is that what is described in the Book of Enoch?
    I believe so but would never say or write that for public consumption.

    Thank you.

    No, wisecracker. Planet X is a hoax. This ring is not a hoax and it is a copper sealing ring that was used in official
    stamping of documents. It was found among King Herod's ruins. There was also a Pilate Stone found decades ago
    bearing his inscription, which I'm sure you never heard of.

    I heard they also found of pair of Pilates underwear in that dig

    They know it was his because the name "Pilate" was written on the waistband of the underwear, obviously from his mother labeling his BVDs before he went to summer camp

    More indisputable proof

    Probably people before my time, otherwise an interesting thought.

    Let's start earlier, with John the Baptist.

    Did anyone foretell of JJ's coming? Has he been there since the beginning?

    In the beginning, JJ Gold posted, and online internet gambling forums were created.
