Archaeological Find

29. “Place of Trumpeting,” Temple Inscription from Jesus’ Day

In 1969 excavators removing debris from the southwest corner of the retaining wall of the ancient Temple in Jerusalem found a rectangular capstone from one of the Temple towers.

Description of the Find

The Hebrew words carved into a Temple tower capstone say, "...to the place of the trumpeting."

Importance of the Find

The “place of trumpeting” on the stone refers to the place where the priests blew trumpets announcing the beginnings of holy festivals (See Psalm 81:3 and Joel 2:15). This rare find brings to life the Temple rituals of Jesus’ day.
