All goes to confirm there was LOTS of trade activity in that part of the world at the time of Christ and before. Makes stories of Jesus traveling widely (some say India, some say England) very credible. The idea he spend the time between age 12 and 30 or so sawing wood and pounding nails strikes me as totally lacking in imagination, not to mention totally without Biblical basis.

You know, I saw a program on one of the documentary channels that claimed that Jesus survived the crusifixion (sp), moved to France and even had a family in France, (kids and all). Have you seen that one?
