Another must-see for the Christian tour groups.

Is it my imagination, or has there been an explosion of stories like this recently? The discovery of Peter's home in Jerusalem where the early Christians met, and the pool where John the Baptist baptized. Also the site of the wedding at Cana where Jesus performed His first miracle.

If I was an Israeli archaeologist, I'd be digging for any connection with the Jesus years...good for the tourist business.

The city's location is being disputed. No one has claimed to have found the location of where the actual wedding took place.

I believe St. John the Baptist baptized people in the Jordan, which is bigger than a pool...

Don't forget the box where Jesus brothers bones were kept.
