A 4,000-year-old Egyptian sphinx was an unexpected find in an Israel excavation site, Tel Hazor
Only the paws have been found so far, and the piece bears the name of a pharaoh who ruled in 2500 BC
The normally quiet part of Israel is enlivened every summer when archeologists and volunteers arrive to dig
Excavations first began in the 1950s, and numerous artifacts and do ents have been unearthed

Awesome. Mind boggling to think of all of the priceless ancient artifacts sitting in the dirt waiting to be discovered.
