Remnants of an ancient city dating back to the period of the Hebrew monarchy have been uncovered at Ramath Rachel, near here.

Among the relics earthed were a large number of seal impressions, some obviously private stamps, some with the initials of Judea and one bearing the Star of David with the word Jerusalem traced between the points of the star.
