🧬 **Ancient Mediterranean DNA confirms old truths: People contain multitudes**

“_Their analysis revealed something that seems counterintuitive: Despite the fact that Punic people originally came from the eastern Mediterranean, an area called the Levant, those who were living in Punic settlements several centuries later showed almost no trace of Levantine ancestry._”

"The #hamsa itself is not a uniquely #Jewish symbol. It’s used by people of all religions with roots across the #MiddleEast and the #Levant. Some call it the hand of #Fatima (#Mohammad’s daughter), some the hand of #Miriam (after #Moses’ sister). Five is an auspicious number in both #Islam (the five pillars of Islam) and #Judaism (the five books of the #Torah). The symbol’s roots might be in early #Pagan traditions that pre-date monotheistic religions, but it has become a popular symbol in both #Judaism — #Jews are speculated by scholars to be the first to use it as an amulet — and #Islam. Many Jews wear hamsa jewelry and put hamsa amulets around their homes."

Just to let you know that Jews, Christians and Muslims lived in relative peace in the Levant before the rise of Zionism and Arab nationalism, especially before the establishment of Israel in 1948.

**From Land's End to the Levant: did Britain's tin sources transform the Bronze Age in Europe and the Mediterranean?**

“_Results from the shipwrecks near Israel strongly suggest that the ‘bronzization’ of the East Mediterranean, occurring 1500–1300 BC, was primarily driven by European tin sources, particularly from south-west Britain, rather than Central Asian sources. Tin ore finds from settlements across Cornwall and Devon suggest a decentralised production model in prehistory, with agriculture still dominant alongside numerous small alluvial tin workings._”
