Levi Rahmani


Levi Yizhaq Rahmani was an Israeli archeologist and Chief Curator of Israel Antiquities Authority, and notable for his work on tombs, ossuaries and ossilegia in the Second Temple period. Ossuaries are generally catalogued as "Rahmani no. 9", etc., following the numbering in Rahmani's 1994 catalogue.
Rahmani's work includes explanations of why sometimes iron nails were found in some tombs - unrelated to Roman crucifixion nails, and the earlier dating of tombs.
