Telung panci masak sing utuh lan lampu lenga keramik cilik sing ana ing jaman Pemberontakan Agung bubar ditemokake ing bak cilik sing ana ing sawijining bangunan sing katon ing penggalian arkeologi sing ditindakake dening Otoritas Antiquities Israel ing cedhak Tembok Kulon, ing sekitar Robinson's Arch ing Taman Arkeologi Yerusalem. Kapal-kapal kasebut ditemokake ing jero saluran drainase sing katon kabeh saka Kolam Shiloah ing Kutha Dawud nganti wiwitan Lengkungan Robinson.
Miturut Eli Shukron, direktur penggalian atas jenenge Otoritas Purbakala Israel, "Iki sepisanan kita bisa nyambungake temuan arkeologi karo paceklik sing kedadeyan nalika pengepungan Yerusalem nalika Pemberontakan Agung. Kuli masak sing lengkap lan lampu lenga keramik nuduhake yen wong-wong padha mudhun menyang sumur ing kono kanthi meneng-menengan mangan panganan sing ana ing kuwali, tanpa ana sing weruh, lan iki cocog karo crita sing diwenehake dening Yosefus."
Ing bukuné, The Jewish War Josephus, nggambaraké pangepungan Romawi ing Yérusalèm lan sawisé keluwen sing ana ing kutha sing diblokir.
Ing katrangan dramatis babagan paceklik ing Yerusalem dheweke nyritakake babagan para pemberontak Yahudi sing golek panganan ing omahe kanca-kancane wong Yahudi ing kutha kasebut. Iki, Josephus ngandika, ndhelikake panganan sing diduweni amarga wedi dicolong dening para pemberontak lan padha mangan ing panggonan sing didhelikake ing omahe.
"Nalika pailan saya tansaya parah, wong-wong sing padha nggegirisi saya tambah akeh. Yen padha ketemu sawetara padha maltreated penghuni kanggo ngandika ora ana; Yen ora, dheweke curiga yen dheweke ndhelikake kanthi ati-ati lan nyiksa dheweke."
"Akeh wong kanthi meneng-menengan ngijolake barang-barange kanggo gandum siji takaran yen sugih, gandum yen mlarat. Dheweke nutup awake dhewe ing pojok-pojok omah sing paling peteng, ing ngendi sawetara amarga keluwen banget mangan gandum, sing liyane nggawe roti, kabutuhan lan wedi dadi tuntunan. Ora ana meja sing diselehake ... "(Josephus The Jewish War. Translated by GA Williamson 1959. P. 290).
APA sing kudu dijupuk saka ARTIKEL INI:
- Three intact cooking pots and a small ceramic oil lamp that date to the time of the Great Revolt were recently uncovered in a small cistern belonging to a building exposed in an archaeological excavation the Israel Antiquities Authority is conducting near the Western Wall, in the vicinity of Robinson's Arch in the Jerusalem Archaeological Park.
- According to Eli Shukron, excavation director on behalf of the Israel Antiquities Authority, “This is the first time we are able to connect archaeological finds with the famine that occurred during the siege of Jerusalem at the time of the Great Revolt.
- The complete cooking pots and ceramic oil lamp indicate that the people went down into the cistern where they secretly ate the food that was contained in the pots, without anyone seeing them, and this is consistent with the account provided by Josephus.
