Was the 6000-year-old mummified corpse found in the Cave of Horror?Arminden (talk) 00:11, 19 March 2021 (UTC)

[edit]

Jerusalem Post says yes ("The cave offered several other unique findings, including the skeleton of a child dating back some 6,000 years."), but they're often confused. They do state that the basket was found elsewhere. The Bar Kokhba "Year 1" coins are from the Cave of Horror. Article. The Smithsonian Magazine article also says that, but it's not clear if they didn't just repeat what was written in the Israeli English-language press. A scientific source would be better, as always.
