The Land of Israel constantly reveals hidden treasures, testifying to its rich history and the Jewish people's longstanding ties to the land. This time, archaeologists discovered on the Temple Mount coins minted by the Jewish people.

To date, approximately 600 colored stone floor tile segments have been discovered, with many of them dated to the Herodian Second Temple period. The Temple Mount Sifting Project was established in response to the illegal removal of tons of antiquities-rich earth from the Temple Mount by the Islamic Waqf.

A monumental Roman gate discovered in the excavations by the University of Haifa at Sussita (Hippos) National Park in the Golan may cast light on the bronze mask of Pan – the only object of its kind found anywhere in the world – that was discovered on the same site during last year’s excavation season.

Hiking is very popular in Israel and you have the potential to find things almost everywhere at its 37,000 registered archaeological sites, and Filipino hospitality - opening the Philippines to Jews fleeing the Holocaust - earned Israel's gratitude, which now welcomes Filipinos, and much more.
