Roman Sarcophagus Discovered in Israel August 2015
#1
For those interested in Roman History and archeological discoveries. There was a Roman Sarcophagus Discovered in Israel in the last week of August 2105. It was unearthed by a Building Contractor and hidden.

I am not sure if it should go this category... because I am not sure if it has to do with Roman Military History... However, Being found in Israel indicates (To me anyhow) because of Roman occupation of Israel and the decorations on the Sarcophagus, it is important to this section. If a moderator feels it should go somewhere else, please feel free to move it.

I was seeing how they supposedly damaged it. Israel is not very happy about this.
