Archaeology Lectureship Photos

Gary Young from Australia came down for a visit in Malaysia and drop by Subang Jaya Church of Christ to share with us some lessons on Bible Archaeology. Below are some photos taken during the lectureship and photos of some artifacts.

Necklace probably worn by women for decoration

Coins that were used during the Roman empire.

The nail used during the time of Christ. Notice the length of the nail. This was probably the same type of nail used to nail Christ to the cross (above and below)


Oil lamps and jar to store the oil. Remember the parables of the ten virgins in the gospel?
