摘要
A unique assemblage, comprising ten Phoenician storage jars, three rare imported amphorae, two juglets, one cooking pot and one saucer, was discovered in a small cave in northern Israel, accessible today only with the aid of ropes. The cave apparently served as supply cache for a small group of people hiding in a nearby cluster of caves. The date of the vessels converges around 145-138 BCE, a time of intense military activity in Palestine, involving mainly Seleukids and Ptolemies. We speculate that those who hid in the cave were trying to escape local disturbances, shockwaves of the larger events.
