A team of Israeli archeologists has announced the discovery of an ancient Biblical city. The Israeli Antiquities Authority, Hebrew University in Jerusalem and Macquarie University of Sydney, Australia issued a joint statement saying that they had uncovered the city of Ziklag, which was mentioned multiple times in the Bible.
Ziklag is referenced in relation to David, who was granted sanctuary in the city along with his army, with the permission of Achish, King of Gat. The site is believed to be where David was anointed as the King of Israel.
