Among other things, scientists hope to be able to identify the ethnicity or nationality of the people who actually controlled the mining and smelting operation during the 10th century B.C.E., the time period when, based on the Biblical accounts, scholars have traditionally dated the kingdom of Edom, as well as that of David and Solomon of ancient Israel. And how will they manage to do that? If they find any Hebrew inscriptions, they'll throw them out, claiming they were fakes, or worked their way down from much later times.
