I Wonder Who Lost These So Very Long Ago

Ancient Gold Treasure found in Jerusalem


edition.cnn.com —
 Israeli archaeologists are having a particularly happy Hanukkah after discovering 264 ancient gold coins in a car park in the City of David, a Jerusalem National Park.

One of the customs of the holiday is to give coins to children, and the archaeologists are referring to the 1,400 year-old coins as "Hanukkah money."
