Archeology


A team of archeologists were excavating in Israel, when they came upon a cave. Written on the wall of the cave were the following symbols in order of appearance.


1. A dog
2. A donkey
3. A shovel
4. A fish
5. The Star of David


They decided that this was a unique finding and that the writings were more than 3,000 years old. They chopped out the piece of stone and brought it to the museum, where archeologists from all over the world came to study the ancient symbols. They held a huge meeting after months of conferences to discuss what they could agree was the meaning of the markings.


The president of their society stood up and pointed at the first drawing and said, "This looks like a dog. We can judge that this was a highly intelligent race, as they knew how to have animals for companionship. To prove this statement, you can see that the next symbol resembles a donkey, so they were even smart enough to have animals help them till the soil.


"The next drawing looks like a shovel of some sort, which means they even had tools to help them. Further proof of their intelligence is the fish, which means that when they had a famine and could not grow food, they took to the sea for food.


"The last symbol appears to be the Star of David, which means they were evidently Hebrews."


The audience applauded enthusiastically.


The president smiled and said, "I'm glad to see that you are all in full agreement with our interpretations."


Suddenly, a little old Jewish man stood up in the back of the room and said, "I object to every word. The explanation of what the writings say is quite simple. Everyone knows that Hebrews don't read from left to right, but from right to left. Look again... It says, HOLY MACKEREL, DIG THE ASS ON THAT BITCH."
