17 August 2004Archaeologists in Israel claimed yesterday to have found a cave where they believe John the Baptist anointed many of his disciples. Carvings on the walls of the cave, which is about 2 ½ miles from the preacher's hometown of Ein Kerem, are thought to tell the story of his life, though the archeologists didn't find any inscriptions. If their claims can be confirmed, writes the AP's Karin Laub, the discovery would be among the most significant breakthroughs for biblical scholars in memory.
