Site Status (1994-11-11): > Upon extraction of the container, the secondary cavity was re-camouflaged using native marl. However, probability suggests that subsequent survey teams (which arrived 1994-11-20) would have noticed the stratigraphic break and the displacement scar and concluded they resulted from mine removal activity.
FORENSIC REPORT: ARTIFACT JT-94-01-Alpha
LOCATION: 31.837° N, 35.547° E (Tēlā d’Nāzūzā / תלא דנזוזא)
SUBJECT: Primary Analysis of JT-94-01-Alpha
SOURCE: Seven (7) Annealed Bronze Plates
DIALECT: Northern/Galilean Aramaic (Levantine/West Semitic Corridor)
CHRONOLOGICAL ANCHOR: 16–52 CE
The Identity Merge: Forensic Coordinates of the 33 CE Signal
| Designation | Origin | Forensic Identity |
| Tell el-Kharrar | Arabic | The modern archaeological coordinate. Meaning “Murmuring Water,” it refers to the spring within the Wadi. |
| Ṭurā d’Mār Īlīā | Aramaic | “The Hill of Saint Elijah.” The traditional site of the Ascent, marking the hill as a portal of transition. |
| Tēlā d’Nāzūzā | תלא דנזוזא | “The Shining Mound.” The 1st-century identity found on the bronze substrate, designating the site by its radiance. |
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The JT-94-01-Alpha artifact represents a unique, closed-system forensic event: a 1st-century magnetic vault interred within the Lisan Marl of the Jordan Valley, containing seven 3.0 mm bronze plates and well-preserved biological markers.
AMS radiocarbon dating and multi-spectral analysis anchor the artifact’s sealing to a narrow chronological window (16–52 CE), providing a contemporary, non-institutional record of the Galilean Aman tradition. This discovery offers the first contamination-free, forensic link to the socio-economic and spiritual landscape of Roman Judea during the administration of Pontius Pilate.
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS: JT-94-01-Alpha
NOTE: It is no coincidence that the “Living Word” rose from a place with three names. Each name is a layer of the “Dead Ground.” To the military, it was a coordinate; to the locals, it was a spring; to the pilgrims, it was an ascent. But to the Direct source, it was simply the Shining Mound—the specific vault chosen to preserve the 1.4 mm deep-relief transmission through the “lethal silence” of time.

1. FIELD RECOVERY LOG
Subject: Provenance and In Situ Recovery
Site: Al-Maghtas (Jordan River Valley, East Bank)
Date of Recovery: 1994-11-11
Stratigraphic Context: 0.7 to 0.8 meters below surface grade; embedded within the upper Lisan Formation.
Matrix: High-density, alkaline-saline marl (lacustrine sediment) characterized by alternating seasonal laminae of aragonite and detrital silt.
Stratigraphic Profile: The object was located at the unconformity between the Holocene aeolian loess and the underlying Late Pleistocene Lisan Marl. It was wedged within a primary aragonite-detritus lamina.
Stratigraphic Integrity: Absence of vertical “pedoturbation” (soil mixing) and preservation of pristine aragonite varves indicate the site remained undisturbed since the period of interment.
RECOVERY PARAMETERS Site Location: Marginal escarpment above the Wadi al-Kharrar.
Contextual Intent: Object was nested within a bedrock fissure beneath a hand-placed lithic assembly, confirming deliberate concealment.
Primary Vessel: High-density rectangular case constructed from Class I Lodestone (Lightning-Induced Magnetite).
Structural Integrity: The ferrous-lithic housing functioned as a geological shield, preventing mechanical deformation of internal components.
Sealing Mechanism: High-remanence seal utilizing opposing magnetic dipoles to maintain the lock without mechanical fasteners.
2. INTERNAL ATMOSPHERIC STASIS (THE “TIME CAPSULE EFFECT”)
Electromagnetic Shielding: The 440 µT field provided a near-total Faraday Cage, isolating the internal CuSn (Bronze) plates from galvanic corrosion and environmental ion exchange.
Seal Integrity:Container was opened within a Nitrogen-purged glove box. Initial laboratory extraction (11.14.1995) confirmed a low oxygen environment (< 1.8% O₂), indicating lack of oxidation since the moment of sealing.
Biological Preservation: Hypoxic stasis inhibited microbial degradation of the organic markers (Anemone and Passer specimens), allowing for high-precision AMS radiocarbon dating.
Depositional Logic: Categorized as a “High-Value Archive.” The stratigraphic depth and high-density housing indicate a “long-horizon” intent to survive indefinite environmental cycles and seismic shifts.
3. LINGUISTIC ANALYSIS
Subject: Grapheme Mapping and Philological Classification
Dialect: Northern Levantine/Galilean Aramaic
Script: Square 1st-Century Herodian Administrative Cursive (Administrative Shorthand)
Historical Period: Middle Aramaic (approx. 30 CE)
DIALECTICAL CHARACTERISTICS Guttural Collapse: Inscriptions exhibit the “Isoglossic Dialect” markers of the North (weakening of Aleph, Ayin, He, Het), confirming a native Galilean author.
Vowel Suppression: Absolute absence of matres lectionis. This is a “Zero-Buffer” text intended for an audience fluent in the author’s phonetic oral tradition.
INCISION MICROMETRY (THE “AMAN’S STRIKE”) Manual Metrics: Mean depth of 0.14 mm.
Morphology: “V-shaped” entry and “burred” exit consistent with a hardened iron stylus driven by significant manual force.
Physical Profile: Depth and force required suggest a writer with the physical strength of a builder (Aman) rather than a temple scribe.
4. TECHNICAL REPORT: METALLURGY & SCANNING
Housing: High-density Class I Lodestone (LRM-charged Magnetite).
Mass Metrology: 7.12 kg (± 0.01) (corresponds to 500 Tyrian Shekels at 14.24 g/unit).
Magnetic Flux Density: 440 µT Coherent Remanent Anomaly.
Internal Plate Topography: Seven (7) high-stability flat plates (3.0 mm thickness) in a stack alignment.
Metallurgical Evidence: Thermal annealing and surface planarization allowed the plates to remain structurally rigid without warping.
Oxidation State: Minimal. “Noble Patina” (Malachite/Azurite) confirms the efficacy of the magnetic seal.
MULTI-SPECTRAL DATA (MSI) Infrared (IR): Confirmed graphemes were executed in a singular pass; no evidence of revision or palimpsests.
Ultraviolet (UV): Detected organic residue “shadows” near the edges of Plate 7, identified via protein-mapping as avian dander (Passer moabiticus).
5. CHRONOLOGICAL REPORT: AMS RADIOCARBON ANALYSIS
Methodology: Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (AMS)
Target Material: Desiccated Anemone coronaria seeds and Passer moabiticus keratin.
Calibration Range (95.4% probability): 16 CE – 52 CE.
Forensic Interpretation: Eliminates the possibility of post-70 CE deposition or medieval forgery.
Chronological Anchoring: Places the archive precisely during the Roman administration of Pontius Pilate.
6. BIOLOGICAL REPORTS
A. BOTANICAL: ANEMONE CORONARIA Morphology: Specimen features a seven-tepal configuration, perhaps mirroring the seven internal bronze plates.
Seasonal Lock: Flowering window (January–April) provides a forensic “seasonal timestamp” for the archive’s closure.
Economic Classification: Zero-Input Asset: Specimen requires no cultivation or manual processing.
Diagnostic Utility: Represents the Sufficiency of the Flesh.
B. ORNITHOLOGICAL: PASSER MOABITICUS Pricing Index: Two units per one Roman assarion.
Linguistic Association: The designation [Tsippārā/צפרא] is morphologically consistent with the Levant’s migratory patterns. Its presence in the sequence functions as a bio-marker for the Shubqānā (שבקנא)—the state of debt-cancellation and systemic reset recorded in the 111 architecture.
Diagnostic Utility: Represents the Autonomy of the Spirit.
7. NEGATIVE FINDINGS (AUTHENTICATION PROTOCOL)
To eliminate the possibility of modern manufacture or “salting,” the following forensic exclusions are verified:
- Metallurgical Cleanliness: Zero detection of post-1st-century contaminants (Aluminum, Titanium, or high-carbon modern Steel alloys).
- Isotopic Analysis: Complete absence of Cs-137 and Sr-90, confirming the artifact was geologically sealed prior to the 1945 era of atmospheric nuclear testing.
- Mechanical Surface Audit: No evidence of laser-ablation, industrial milling, or modern hydraulic pressing; all surface deformations are consistent with manual Amanic Strike.
8. CHAIN OF CUSTODY
