Archaeologists working in Israel have uncovered what is believed to be one of the world’s oldest mosques. The Israel Antiquities Authority is dating the site to the 7th century C.E. into the 8th century, right around the time of Islamic expansion into the Israeli region. This discovery is a rare find and of religious significance due to the congregation of the Mosque during the 7th and 8th centuries being mostly rural workers and local farmers.
