中文注释:在以色列耶路撒冷的纳哈尔·米什马尔峡谷的一处洞穴深处,考古学家们发现了这件铜制野山羊工艺品,一道发现的还有其他428件祭祀物品。这些物品已有5,500年的历史。制造像这件铜制节杖或仗头的铸造品需要精湛的工艺及优质材料的使用,例如一种富含砷的铜矿石,在圣地耶路撒冷800英里(1200公里)内都不出产。作者: Kenneth Garrett
野山羊 工艺品 耶路撒冷 以色列 图片故事:高清壁纸:英文注释:Ibex Artifact, Jerusalem, Israel, 1999 Archaeologists discovered this copper ibex artifact, along with 428 other ceremonial objects, in a 5,500-year-old cache in a cave in Nahal Mishmar canyon in Jerusalem, Israel. Casting objects such as this copper scepter or mace head required technical finesse and the use of materials such as arsenic-rich copper ore, which does not occur naturally within 800 miles (1,290 kilometers) of the Holy Land.
