I think that it was important for historians and archaeologists to find some physical evidence that Jesus could have walked the Earth. While this piece still has many unanswered questions, I believe that it will help historians understand what might be left behind to prove the existence of Jesus. I had never heard of this discovery before, and think it is interesting to see the different cultural practices from the past. Since it is extremely hard to find evidence and definitively say that it was from one specific era and shows evidence for the existence of stories that we hear, finding these breakthrough pieces help paint a clearer picture of what the past was like. In the instance of James, Jesus’ brother, I think that it is important that we understand what type of person that we think that he was and how he might have followed and practiced religion. Especially, when looking for evidence of Jesus.
