In the mid 1980s, a man was walking on the shores of the Sea of Galilee in the area of the Kibbutz Ginnosar,when he found a long nail buried in the mud. He began digging and eventually unearthed this boat that was dated to the first century AD. It is in the traditional shape that fishermen used at that time. After many years of preservation work it is now on display at the museum. Is it the "Jesus Boat" or a boat used by fishermen on the Sea of Galilee? What do you think?
