Kingdom of Judah? Recreation (resin cast about 8 by 4 inches). Inside the ring which represents the city walls, there are hieroglyphs that spell out cities that Sheshonq I (Shishak in the Bible) captured during his military campaign into Palestine during his 20th year reign (925 B.C. See I Kings 14:25-26). In 1828 Champollion read in ring 29 the name Y-W-D-H-M-L-K as "Kingdom of Judah". Scholars today think it should be better translated "Hand of the King." It is listed with cities in northern Israel.
