Like coats of many colors?
If they have gotten back 3000 years to King David, it's just a few hundred more back to Joseph. (Did Jacob take Joseph's coat with him to Egypt or leave it behind in the land of Canaan?)
I LOVE ancient things. Touching history haptically or intellectually somehow attaches me to history itself.
I love ruins in Mexico as you are allowed to touch them (fewer and fewer though).
Touching carvings thousands of years old brings images in my mind of how people lived then.
GGG rocks!
Was the fabric made by Levites and Strauss?
My kind of archeological article.
