53 biblical persons mentioned in inscriptions
BIBLE HISTORY DAILY: 53 People in the Bible Confirmed Archaeologically. A web-exclusive supplement to Lawrence Mykytiuk's BAR articles identifying real Hebrew Bible people. I noted the 2014 version of this article here. Follow the link there for more on Professor Mykytiuk's work on ancient Northwest Semitic inscriptions and the Hebrew Bible. This updated version of the article adds three new confirmed names to the list. But it does not specific which three are the new names.
