Early Christian Era

EARLY CHRISTIANITY ERA WINE-JUG WORKSHOP UNEARTHED IN CENTRAL ISRAEL

Relics from a large-scale wine jug workshop that dates back around 1,800 years have been uncovered in modern day 'Gedera' ("גדרה"), in Central Israel.

According to archaeologists the factory dates back to the 3rd century and was active for around 600 years, making vessels for storing wine that were popular export items during the Roman and Byzantine times.
