The heel bone of Yehohanan Ben Hagkol (John son of Hagkol) pierced by a long nail. Found in an ossuary near Jerusalem in 1968, this bone is the only incontrovertible physical evidence of a crucifixion. At the time of his death, dated between 50 and 70 CE, Yehohanan was between 24 and 28 years old, was around 5.7 feet tall and was in good health. The crime for which he was crucified is not known.

He was honored by the State of Israel as one of the "Righteous Gentiles" and his memory has been honored ever since in the Christian community, particularly the Eastern Orthodox, as an example of Christian charity, kindness, humility, and compassion. For that, he shall always be remembered…

Han Peng: Seeing is believing, but even after witnessing them first hand, I still find it hard to believe that the changes can happen so fast and on such a large scale. If this momentum can be maintained, the Romantic tales of the ancient Silk Road ~ with camel caravans and merchants crossing the continent ~ might soon become a modern reality...
习近平: With the New Year approaching, I, on behalf of the CPC Central Committee and the Central Military Commission, wish all the PLA Soldiers, Armed Police Forces, and reservists a Happy New Year.
