Two Coins Found in Israel Prove That Jewish Revolt History is Wrong!
East of Jerusalem lies the historic Judean Desert and the hilltop fortress of Masada overlooking the Dead Sea. Masada was the setting of the mass suicide of almost 1,000 Jewish zealots, including men, women, and children, who preferred to die in honor than be conquered by the Romans in 73 AD during the Jewish revolt period. Recently, not far from Masada, two coins from 2,000 years ago were found in a wadi or dry canyon that have rewritten the history of the Jewish revolts against the Romans in the Akrabat region.

Often referred to as the author of the Mediterranean Kama Sutra, little is known about Philaenis of Samos, who likely wrote this work around the 4th century BC. She is the most mentioned author of the erotic sex guide Joy of Sex, being a rare surviving work by a woman from antiquity. She is mentioned in more than a dozen sources, and fragments of a manual titled P. Oxy. 2891, found in Egypt’s Oxyrhynchus, and published in 1972 seem to trace their attribution to her.
