A 1,700-year-old oil lamp is decorated with rare Jewish artwork.
The Roman Empire had tried to suppress worship in Jerusalem after a revolt in the region.
The lamp shows the persistence of Jewish belief there in the centuries that followed.
The discovery was made public for Hanukkah , a Jewish holiday commemorating a miracle in which a single jar of oil kept the temple fire alight for eight days .
