Ed-note (Sabba) – Now how about that: Egyptian presence in the Holy Land dating back to 5000 years ago is being discovered and how do they report the fantastic news? 

One would have expected them to think over the heavy implications of this discovery, and ponder over the lack of archaeological evidence of their own presence in that land. But no!  They brag about the fact that even then, Tel Aviv was the city that never sleeps… 

Archaeology stands its grounds and remains one of the most anti-judaic field of research, while they remain oblivious the world around them.

Tel Aviv: The city that never sleeps brewed Egyptian beer 5,000 years ago

Seventeen pits were discovered along with fragments of ceramic basins used to prepare beer

The presence of an ancient Egyptian brewery was discovered in southern Tel Aviv Sunday morning at a construction site near the Azrieli towers, according to a statement by the Israeli Antiquities Authority (IAA).

Fragments of ancient pottery, which the IAA believe were used to prepare beer were dated at over 5,000 years old, were discovered along with animal bones, a bronze dagger and flint tools which were over 6,000 years old.

According to the statement, seventeen pits were discovered during the excavation and a “number of fragments of large ceramic basins were discovered that were made in an Egyptian tradition and were used to prepare beer.”

“Beer was the national drink of the Egyptians,a basic commodity like bread,” read the statement, adding that it was consumed by all in Egypt, regardless of age, status, or gender. Ceramic pottery matching those found in Tel Aviv Sunday had previously been discovered at another site known to have been at ‘En Besor in Israel’s Negev.

This discovery marks the first time that evidence of Egyptian occupation in the early Bronze Age has been found so far north, making it a significant find.

“Now we know that they also appreciated what the Tel Aviv region had to offer and that they too knew how to enjoy a glass of beer, just as Tel Avivians do today,” said the statement.

“Already thousands of years ago Tel Aviv was the city that never sleeps!”
