The excavations at Ramat Raḥel, just south of Jerusalem, revealed
a complex of structures that existed for hundreds of years in which
the Kingdom of Judah was a vassal of diverse empires. Over some 500
years, jars bearing seals were stored at the site. The findings
throw new light on the late First Temple period and on most of that
of the Second Temple. During these centuries Ramat Raḥel was the
administrative contact point between Judah and the ruling empires.
This is what enabled independent Judean control of Jerusalem and
the Temple, and the ability to maintain Jewish identity within
Jerusalem almost without outside intervention and supervision. All
this came to an end during the Hasmonean revolt.
