A first century ossuary
recently discovered in Israel could be the oldest archaeological link
to Jesus of Nazareth. The Aramaic inscription on the box reads simply
(from right to left):
"James (literally Jacob), son of Joseph, brother of Jesus."
A rather more convinced (although, I might add, not necessarily more convincing) version can be found over at Biblical Archaeology Review.
