He was a priest, soldier and scholar. The first century historian,
Flavius Josephus, is the most frequently quoted scholar when it comes

controversial historian.
6.30 p.m. |HINT| Crucifixion

on the cross. Despite the fact that so many were crucified, little
physical evidence of it remains. We investigate why there is so
little archaeological proof and visit the only known artifact, a foot
with a nail through it, in an Israeli museum.
