Historical NoteNote
Found by Ed and his group in the Sea of Galilee when they were exploring some areas there in “Reef Diver” and I believe it dates from about 100 A.D. It is very unusual to find one in such perfect condition because it is a very delicate piece of ceramics and it represents a great deal of skill on the part of the potter.
