We Metal Detected the Town Jesus Condemned… and Found This

15,546 views,

We got a rare legal opportunity to metal detect at ancient Chorazin — the biblical town near the Sea of Galilee where Jesus performed miracles, yet many did not believe.

With Dr. Cohen-Tavor supervising the search, we scanned the ruins for coins and artifacts… but what we found across the road may be even more mysterious. Ancient nails, bronze pieces, a decorated bracelet, possible hidden village terraces, a dolmen burial structure, wild boars hiding in the rocks, and finally — a tiny coin that may be over 2,100 years old.

This is one of our most raw and exciting archaeology adventures yet.

⚠️ Important: Metal detecting for antiquities in Israel is illegal without proper archaeological permission and supervision. Everything in this video was done legally under the authority of Dr. Cohen-Tavor and with permission for the site.
