A three-year-old girl in Israel picked up what she thought was a “beautiful stone” while visiting Tel Azekah, the site traditionally linked to David and Goliath. To her family’s surprise, experts later identified it as a 3,800-year-old Canaanite scarab amulet, a rare artifact influenced by Egyptian culture.
The amulet, authenticated by the Israel Antiquities Authority, sheds light on the rich history of the region and the spiritual practices of the Canaanites. The discovery connects an innocent moment of childhood curiosity to a remarkable piece of archaeology from the biblical heartland.
