“This is the first sentence ever found in the Canaanite language in Israel.'
The inscription's letters were carved in an extremely shallow manner. While it was unearthed in 2017, Dr. Madeleine Mumcuoglu didn't see the letters until after post-processing in 2022. Miriam Lavi cleaned and preserved it.Also mentioned in the press release was the fact that
the comb measures only 3.5 by 2.5 centimeters. Both sides of the comb have teeth. The comb teeth themselves were shattered in antiquity, despite the fact that their bases are still visible. The central section of the comb has been somewhat eroded, presumably due to the strain of fingers holding the comb during haircare or the removal of lice from the head or beard.
Under a microscope, the study team examined the comb for the presence of lice and photographed both sides. On the second tooth, 0.5-0.6 mm head lice remains were discovered. However, the environmental circumstances in Lachish did not allow for the preservation of full-head lice, only the exterior chitin membrane of the nymph stage head louse.
The first reference to Lachish is found in the Amarna texts. Lachish is listed as one of the cities that the Israelites destroyed in the Book of Joshua as a result of joining the coalition against the Gibeonites. Later, the region was given to the tribe of Judah and included in the Kingdom of Israel. Lachish became one of the most significant cities in the country of Judah after the division of the kingdom, and second only to the capital, Jerusalem.
