Archaeologists have uncovered a series of remarkable ritual objects and ancient wine-making facilities near Tel Megiddo, the biblical site known as Armageddon in Israel. The discoveries include a 5,000-year-old rock-carved wine press, now recognized as the oldest ever found in the region, providing direct evidence of early wine production during the rise of urban settlements. Alongside the wine press, researchers found intact Canaanite cult artifacts dating back 3,300 years, such as a ceramic shrine model and animal-shaped vessels used for ceremonial offerings. These items were carefully buried near a large rock outcrop, suggesting the existence of a folk cult operating outside the main city temple, likely comprised of local farmers. The findings offer new insights into the daily life, beliefs, and ritual practices of ancient inhabitants, revealing a continuity of consecration and libation traditions over thousands of years. Recent excavations also uncovered evidence of Egyptian military presence at Megiddo, further enriching the site's historical significance.
