>Timber pilings excavated from a deep layer of silt on the sea bed have been radio-carbon dated at 250BC

Confirms there was lots of sea traffic in that part of the world long before the time of Christ. Jesus uncle(?) Joseph of Arimethia was a big time shipper of tin from SW England. Probably based in Caesarea Maritima, the biggest baddest seaport in the region at that time. (Excellent web site!)
