Handprints at Hippos

HUMAN TRACES: Israel archaeologists discover 2,000-year-old handprints in ancient Roman cistern (huaxia, Xinhua).

I am suprised that Xinhua seems to be the only media outlet covering this story.

For many PaleoJudaic posts on the ancient site of Hippos-Sussita, start here (cf. here) and follow the links. Some years ago, archaeologist also discovered footprints of Roman soliders embedded in mortar at Hippos-Sussista.
