The International Studies Institute presents theFall 2017 Lecture in Contemporary Jewish Studies

Monday, September 11, 2017 Kiva Auditorium (UNM Campus)1:00 — 2:00 pm Lecture (Q & A to follow)In 2002, an ossuary inscribed “James son of Joseph brother of Jesus” surfaced in the hands of a private collector. A few years later, a Discovery Channel documen-tary and related book claimed that the tomb of Jesus and his family has been found in Jerusalem. In this slide-illustrated lecture, we examine the validity of these sensational claims in light of archaeological and historical evidence for ancient Jewish tombs and burial customs in Jerusalem, including the burials of Jesus and his brother James.
