5th 6th century golden mosaics .
The golden mosaics that covered church walls and ceilings in the Late Antique period depicted Biblical narratives and scenes from the lives of Christ and saints through abstract figures. They were made of small glass tiles called tesserae in various colors and with gold foil, which were embedded in plaster or concrete. When light reflected off the tiles, the mosaics glittered and sparkled, creating awe-inspiring beauty. The abstract figures simplified proportions and features to symbolically represent heavenly concepts and events that could not literally be seen. Glittering gold backgrounds further suggested the transcendental qualities of heaven.

Archaeology of the Bible
This 352-page book provides an overview of archaeological discoveries that have enhanced modern understanding of daily life in biblical times. It describes excavations at important sites like King Herod's palace and tomb.

L3 Archaeology & the Bible
Archaeology is the study of material remains from the past to gain insight into historical events and cultures. Biblical archaeology began in the 19th century to provide evidence for the accuracy of the Bible. Key figures who pioneered biblical archaeology include Edward Robinson, William Albright, and Kathleen Kenyon. While archaeology has illuminated the Bible lands and times, it cannot prove or disprove the theological claims of the Bible since its purpose is historical understanding, not confirmation of faith. Christians should be interested in archaeology as it helps avoid errors and better understand God and his world.

Archaeology has made several contributions to our understanding of the New Testament. It has:
1) Enlightened our understanding of the geographical settings of biblical accounts by uncovering locations mentioned.
2) Contributed to our understanding of the religious environment of the New Testament world by finding texts like those discovered at Nag Hammadi.
3) Helped constrain attempts to mythologize the New Testament by confirming locations like the Pool of Bethesda described in the Gospel of John.
10 top archaeology discoveries
The Nag Hammadi texts were discovered in 1945 by Egyptian farmers in Nag Hammadi, Egypt. The texts were contained in 13 leather-bound codices dated to the mid-4th century CE. The codices contain over 50 early Christian texts associated with Gnostic sects, providing new insights into diverse beliefs in early Christianity. The discovery and publication of the texts was a long process, with the manuscripts changing hands several times before most were confiscated by the Egyptian government. An international team of scholars led by James Robinson eventually gained access and published translations, bringing these important texts to wider attention.

Review: Hidden History Below Our Feet: The Archaeological Story of Belfast
This book provides a concise summary of the archaeological history of Belfast from prehistoric times to the present day. It is divided into 5 chronological chapters, each beginning with a map and site inventory and exploring what archaeological excavations have revealed about settlements, burials, and material culture during that time period. Engaging illustrations bring the landscapes and sites to life. While more excavations could be published, this volume successfully synthesizes existing research into a single accessible resource. It informs both professionals and amateurs while avoiding oversimplification.
Book Of Kells

The holy grail
The document discusses the legend of the Holy Grail according to Christian tradition and medieval literature. It was the dish or cup used by Jesus at the Last Supper or to collect his blood at the crucifixion. According to legend, it was brought to England by Joseph of Arimathea and guarded by the Fisher King. The search for the Holy Grail by Arthur's knights became a test of purity and virtue. The document also discusses the origins of the legend in earlier Celtic mythology involving magical vessels and relics.
The reliability of the bible
This document discusses the relationship between archaeology and the Bible. It states that archaeology can prove places and people in the Bible existed and provide background, but cannot prove the events happened or validate miracles. While archaeological finds generally support the biblical record, faith is still required. Examples are given of archaeological discoveries that confirm cities and empires mentioned in the Bible. The preservation of scripture is argued to have been divinely overseen based on examples like the Dead Sea Scrolls. Overall the document aims to show how archaeology corroborates the reliability of the Bible.

CA 303 Bannockburn
The document summarizes an archaeological investigation conducted to locate the precise site of the 1314 Battle of Bannockburn in Scotland. Over 1,300 volunteers and experts used techniques like geophysics, aerial photography, metal detecting and excavation across multiple potential sites. Some key findings included medieval artifacts and coins found near Cambuskenneth Abbey, evidence of prehistoric standing stones on Monument Hill that may have been medieval landmarks, and discoveries of medieval settlements and artifacts in the previously thought uninhabited Carse region. Most significantly, metal detectors uncovered pieces of medieval armor - a helmet visor and stirrup - which may represent the first battlefield artifacts from Bannockburn and provide clues about the battle's outcome.
