Archaeologists in Israel have been left scratching their heads after uncovering a mysterious handprint embossed into the wall of a 1,000-year-old moat. According to an announcement by the Israel Antiquities Authority, the peculiar impression was found during an excavation on the outskirts of Jerusalem earlier this month. During the dig, which was conducted in perpetration for a forthcoming infrastructure project, they discovered "part of an ancient defensive moat, believed to date back to the 10th century CE or earlier."
