[snip] Even older objects found
The cavers reported their discovery to the antiquities authority, which sent officials to examine the site over the weekend.
That expedition found objects from even more ancient periods.
“At this point they believe they have found artifacts in the cave that first date to the Chalcolithic period c. 6,000 years ago; from the Early Bronze Age c. 5,000 years ago, the Biblical period 3,000 years ago and the Hellenistic period approximately 2,300 years ago,” the authority said in a statement.
Just wow!
