Shocking truth behind ancient gate from King David's time

The discovery of a gate dating to King David's time at the site of Bethsaida in the Golan Heights suggests he may not have been the only ruler of his time.

After more than three decades of excavations at the Bethsaida site in the Golan Heights, archaeologists have discovered a gate dating back to the time of King David. According to historians, King David is believed to have ruled the area from the 11th to the 10th century BC. Photo: ATI.

The gate was discovered on a rocky hill overlooking the Sea of Galilee in Israel. Although it is not the first gate to be discovered in the area, it is the oldest, according to experts. Photo: Rami Arav/University of Nebraska.

The team determined that the gate was part of the biblical city of Zer, dating from the First Temple period (circa 1000 BC to 586 BC). Photo: Stephen G. Rosenberg.

“There are not many gates in the country from this period,” said lead archaeologist Dr Rami Arav, who has overseen the excavation project since 1987. “Bethsaida was the name of the city during the Second Temple period, but during the First Temple period it was Zer. The fortified towns were Ziddim, Zer, Hammath, Rakkath, Kinnereth.” Photo: Robert Hoetink / Adobe Stock.

The newly discovered gate is much older than the first and has changed archaeologists' previous thinking about Bethsaida and the Kingdom of King David. Photo: Rami Arav / University of Nebraska.

Researchers suggest that King David may not have been the sole ruler of his time. Instead, he may have been the leader of a large Israelite tribe in the area. Photo: Rami Arav / University of Nebraska.

Ruins around the gate suggest that, 3,000 years ago, Bethsaida may not have been part of the ancient kingdom of Israel but of the Aramaic kingdom. Photo: thevintagenews.
