Archaeology confirms what the bible says. The Arabs have been saying that this is not true, that the Jews are settlers and the Arabs had been there before them. 

 

“Inside the tunnels beneath the Western Wall in Israel, archaeologists have uncovered the final parts of an elaborate building that may have been used as a reception area for members of Jerusalem's local council and their guests on their journey to Temple Mount. “

 

Here’s what the Israelis Say About The Wall:

 

They believe that it was used by the Babylonians who took Jerusalem in 586 BC.

“Near the wall, archeologists found a Babylonian stamp seal made of stone, depicting a figure standing in front of symbols of the two Babylonian gods Marduk and Nabu. Not far from there, a bulla, a stamp seal impression made in clay, was found bearing the Judean name “Tsafan.”

Time and again, archaeology has confirmed that the Bible describes ancient history and culture accurately.

We now have archaeological evidence for the United Monarchy of David and Solomon and biblically sound dates for the Gihon Tower in Jerusalem, for instance.

The Bible recounts 
real eventsreal people and even real catastrophes, such as earthquakes.
