Ossuaries and the Burials of Jesus and James
January 29, 7:30pm - 9:00pmManoa Campus, Campus Center Ballroom
Dr. Jodi Magness, University of North Carolina. In November 2002, the existence of a sensational archaeological artifact was announced to the world: a small stone box called an ossuary inscribed with the name of James, the brother of Jesus. And in spring 2007, yet another sensational claim made headlines around the world: the supposed identification of Jesus’ family tomb in Jerusalem’s Talpiyot neighborhood. In this slide-illustrated lecture, Dr. Magness discusses these finds within the context of ancient Jewish tombs and burial customs in Jerusalem in the time of Jesus (late Second Temple Period).
