Greetings all,

In the news, the discovery of a Byzantine era inscription of Psalm 86  found in Israel:

The psalm is "A Prayer of David" and it was inscribed around the end of the 4th Century AD. While not a huge discovery in itself, this story does highlight the interesting (and previously ignored) site where it was found. 

This is also one of the very, very few Byzantine archaeology stories to happen in 2023. For some reason there has been almost zero archaeology from the Byzantine period happening (or at least being reported) lately.
