The meager Roman remains discovered in the Old City of Jerusalem include stamped roof tiles and bricks bearing the initials LXF , short for LegiooXoFretensis, the Tenth Roman Legion, which participated in the siege against Jerusalem. The tile shown here also depicts the legion’s emblems–a wild boar and a warship. Thousands of the tiles and bricks have been uncovered–only enough, however, to roof a few medium-sized buildings.
