There have been so mny Archeological finds in the last 40 years that have proven the validity of the Bible. Every word of GOD is TRUE. There has NEVER been any part of the Bible proven wrong. As hard as the modern society tries to disprove the Word of GOD, they constantly fail.
In the last 20 years or so, these discoveries have been occurring at an amazingly rapid rate. So much revelation is coming forth. These are very clear signs that we are in the last of the last days! I hope you are paying attention.
In this post we are going to look at a very interesting story about a CAIRN, found in the bottom of the Sea of Galilee. I think that you will enjoy it, and I hope it helps you to see how close we are to the return of Jesus Christ/Yahushua HaMaschiah. This will be the great and final CATCH.

Mysterious rock pile structure found beneath Sea of Galilee off Israeli coast
ARCHAELOLOGISTS have discovered a mysterious, ancient monumental stone structure in the waters of the Sea of Galilee.
ARCHAELOLOGISTS have discovered a mysterious, ancient monumental stone structure in the waters of the Sea of Galilee.
The giant structure is cone-shaped, made of “unhewn basalt cobbles and boulders,” and weighs around 54,400 tonnes, researchers wrote in the International Journal of Nautical Archaeology.
The mysterious rock pile is 10 metres high and 70 metres in diameter – about twice the diameter of Stonehenge. The basalt boulders weigh a total of about 60,000 tons.
Researchers believe the structure is a giant cairn, or rock pile that is often used to mark burials.
But its age and purpose are are not yet certain.
“The shape and composition of the submerged structure does not resemble any natural feature. We therefore conclude that it is a man-made and might be termed a cairn,” researchers wrote.
They speculated it was either built under water to attract fish, or was built on dry land that has since been covered by rising sea levels.
Cairns exist around the world, marking ancient burial sites. (they are also used as trail markers, or to honor spirits/gods, to mark spiritual/ritual sites, to honor the dead or link the living to their ancestors.)
The structure was first spotted during a sonar scan of the Sea of Galilee in 2003, prompting researchers to don scuba gear for a closer look. The structure is made up of large boulders around 1-metre long. There appear to be no walls, divisions or construction pattern.
The “effort invested in such an enterprise is indicative of a complex, well-organised society, with planning skills and economic ability,” researchers wrote in their paper.
“The boulders have natural faces with no signs of cutting or chiselling. Similarly, we did not find any sign of arrangement or walls that delineate this structure.”
Galilee
One of the researchers, Ben-Gurion University’s Israel Antiquity Authority Yitzhak Paz said the structure could be 4000 years old, similar to other ancient structures found nearby.
“The more logical possibility is that it belongs to the third millennium B.C., because there are other megalithic phenomena [from that time] that are found close by,” Mr Paz told LiveScience.
The ancient Khirbet Beteiha, which is made up of three concentric stone circles and dates to the Bronze Age, is 30 km north east of the underwater discovery.
The Sea of Galilee find is also just north of the site of ancient city Khirbet Kerak, which was one of Israel’s largest and most heavily guarded cities in third millennium BC, researchers said.
Paz said a new expedition to examine the site was being organised.
The search will focus on finding artifacts and organic material in order to accurately date the site.
Excavation was also a possibility, he said: “We will try to do it in the near future, I hope, but it depends on a lot of factors.”

Mysterious Sea of Galilee stone structure part of ancient ‘well-organized society’ – Israeli scientists
Published 10 Apr, 2013 17:17 | Updated 11 Apr, 2013 01:11
A mysterious stone structure, which was discovered at the bottom of the Sea of Galilee in Israel nine years ago, is most likely to be a human-made burial mound, an article by the divers investigating the site claims.
The monument, which is made off large boulders, has the shape of a cone and an estimated weight of around 60,000 tons. It rises ten meters tall and has a diameter of around 70 meters.
The anomaly was first detected in the summer of 2003 during a sonar survey of the southwest part of the Sea of Galilee, which is the largest freshwater lake in Israel and lowest freshwater lake on Earth at 211 meters.
The divers have shared their findings in an entry published at the International Journal of Nautical Archaeology.
“The shape and composition of the submerged structure does not resemble any natural feature. We therefore conclude that it is man-made and might be termed a cairn,” the article said.
“Close inspection by scuba diving revealed that the structure is made of basalt boulders up to 1 m (3.2 feet) long with no apparent construction pattern,” the scientists stressed.“The boulders have natural faces with no signs of cutting or chiseling. Similarly, we did not find any sign of arrangement or walls that delineate this structure.” But in order to talk precisely about the building’s dating and purpose, the researches need to find associated artefacts, for which archaeological excavation is required.Yitzhak Paz, of the Israel Antiquities Authority and Ben-Gurion University, believes it could date more than 4.000 years back.“The more logical possibility is that it belongs to the third millennium B.C., because there are other megalithic phenomena [from that time] that are found close by,” he told LiveScience.
The most notable of which is Khirbet Beteiha, which was “the most powerful and fortified town” situated on the territory of modern Israel 4,000 ago. The underwater construction is located 30 kilometers away from it.
Paz added that the ten-meter-tall construction indicates that those, who made it, had a “well-organized society, with planning skills and economic ability,” otherwise such a project would’ve been impossible.
The scientist expressed hope that an underwater archaeological expedition, which will help clear the uncertainty, will take place in the near future as the research branch of the Israeli Antiquities Authority has everything ready for the endeavour.
“We will try to do it in the near future, I hope, but it depends on a lot of factors,” Paz said.

Etymology and Meaning of “Sagane” in Greek
In Greek, the term most closely related to “Sagane” is σαγήνη (sagḗnē), a large drag‑net or seine used for catching fish that swim in shoals StudyLight.org.
Etymology
- Root verb: σαγήνη comes from a derivative of σάττω (sattō, “to equip, to load, to fill”) StudyLight.org.
- Original sense: In ancient Greek, it referred to furniture or equipment, specifically a pack‑saddle in the East, which could be a netted rope bag StudyLight.org.
- Specialized meaning: In fishing contexts, it became the name for a dragnet/seine—a large net with weights at the bottom, dragged through the water StudyLight.org.
Usage in Classical and Biblical Greek
- Classical sources: Found in works by Plutarch, Lucian, and others, describing fishing nets StudyLight.org.
- Biblical usage: In the New Testament (Matthew 13:47), it appears in the parable of the net, symbolizing the gathering of all nations StudyLight.org.
- Lexical notes: Synonyms include ἀμφίβληστρον (amphíblysttron, “net”) and δίκτυον (díktyon, “net”) StudyLight.org.
Possible link to “Sagane” surname
While “Sagane” as a surname has multiple non‑Greek origins (e.g., Polish, Czech, Jewish, French) (Japanese) FamilySearch, in a Greek context the form could be a transliteration of σαγήνη or a related term, especially in historical or literary contexts. In such cases, the meaning would be “dragnet” or “seine”, with the deeper root meaning “equipment” or “netted apparatus” StudyLight.org.
In summary: In Greek, “Sagane” (σαγήνη) is a large fishing net or seine, derived from a verb meaning “to equip” and originally referring to a pack‑saddle or netted bag, later specialized for fishing StudyLight.org.
Anchor for the Greek (sangane) σαγήνη Fishing Net
In the New Testament, the term σαγήνη (sagēnē) refers to a large drag-net or seine used in fishing, often weighted along the bottom and drawn through the water to catch fish of every kind SermonIndex.net+1. In the parable of Matthew 13:47, Jesus uses this net as a metaphor for the kingdom of heaven, illustrating how the gospel gathers all people before final separation.
In ancient Mediterranean fishing practice, such a net was not typically attached to a single fixed anchor. Instead, it was hauled in by teams of fishermen from boats or from the shore, with the net weighted at the bottom and floated at the top Bible Hub. The “anchor” in this context was the boat or shore from which the net was drawn, not a physical anchor point in the water. The net was dragged in a sweeping motion, forming a wall of mesh that moved slowly through the water, gathering everything in its path Bible Hub.
Because the σαγήνη was a large, expensive piece of fishing equipment, it was often worked by two boats that separated and then drew the net in a sweep to the shore SermonIndex.net. This method meant the “anchor” was the fishing vessel or the shoreline from which the net was reeled in, rather than a single point in the water.

Scriptures related to this topic and mentioned in the video.
Matthew 13
The Parable of the Net
47 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind:
48 Which, when it was full, they drew to shore, and sat down, and gathered the good into vessels, but cast the bad away.
49 So shall it be at the end of the world: the angels shall come forth, and sever the wicked from among the just,
50 And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
21 After these things Jesus shewed himself again to the disciples at the sea of Tiberias; and on this wise shewed he himself.
2 There were together Simon Peter, and Thomas called Didymus, and Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee, and two other of his disciples. 3 Simon Peter saith unto them, I go a fishing. They say unto him, We also go with thee. They went forth, and entered into a ship immediately; and that night they caught nothing.
4 But when the morning was now come, Jesus stood on the shore: but the disciples knew not that it was Jesus. 5 Then Jesus saith unto them, Children, have ye any meat? They answered him, No. 6 And he said unto them, Cast the net on the right side of the ship, and ye shall find. They cast therefore, and now they were not able to draw it for the multitude of fishes.
7 Therefore that disciple whom Jesus loved saith unto Peter, It is the Lord. Now when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he girt his fisher’s coat unto him, (for he was naked,) and did cast himself into the sea. 8 And the other disciples came in a little ship; (for they were not far from land, but as it were two hundred cubits,) dragging the net with fishes.
9 As soon then as they were come to land, they saw a fire of coals there, and fish laid thereon, and bread. 10 Jesus saith unto them, Bring of the fish which ye have now caught.
11 Simon Peter went up, and drew the net to land full of great fishes, an hundred and fifty and three: and for all there were so many, yet was not the net broken.
12 Jesus saith unto them, Come and dine. And none of the disciples durst ask him, Who art thou? knowing that it was the Lord.
13 Jesus then cometh, and taketh bread, and giveth them, and fish likewise.
The Parable of the Weeds
24 Jesus told them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field. 25 But while everyone was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, and went away. 26 When the wheat sprouted and formed heads, then the weeds also appeared.
27 “The owner’s servants came to him and said, ‘Sir, didn’t you sow good seed in your field? Where then did the weeds come from?’
28 “‘An enemy did this,’ he replied.
“The servants asked him, ‘Do you want us to go and pull them up?’
29 “‘No,’ he answered, ‘because while you are pulling the weeds, you may uproot the wheat with them. 30 Let both grow together until the harvest. At that time I will tell the harvesters: First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; then gather the wheat and bring it into my barn.’”
The Parables of the Mustard Seed and the Yeast
31 He told them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed, which a man took and planted in his field. 32 Though it is the smallest of all seeds, yet when it grows, it is the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds come and perch in its branches.”
33 He told them still another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like yeast that a woman took and mixed into about sixty pounds[b] of flour until it worked all through the dough.”
34 Jesus spoke all these things to the crowd in parables; he did not say anything to them without using a parable. 35 So was fulfilled what was spoken through the prophet:
“I will open my mouth in parables,
I will utter things hidden since the creation of the world.”[c]
The Parable of the Weeds Explained
36 Then he left the crowd and went into the house. His disciples came to him and said, “Explain to us the parable of the weeds in the field.”
37 He answered, “The one who sowed the good seed is the Son of Man. 38 The field is the world, and the good seed stands for the people of the kingdom. The weeds are the people of the evil one, 39 and the enemy who sows them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the harvesters are angels.
40 “As the weeds are pulled up and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of the age. 41 The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will weed out of his kingdom everything that causes sin and all who do evil. 42 They will throw them into the blazing furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 43 Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Whoever has ears, let them hear.

Divers Discovered a 60,000-Ton Stone Structure Underwater, and No One Knows Why It Was Built
What appears to be a simple cluster of stone quickly reveals itself as something far more mysterious, leaving scientists searching for answers.

A massive stone structure discovered beneath the Sea of Galilee is challenging archaeologists, with its purpose and age still unknown. Weighing an estimated 60,000 tons, the formation stands out as one of the largest underwater features of its kind in the region.
The structure was first detected during a 2003 sonar survey in the southwest part of the lake. Its cone-like shape and scale quickly drew attention, prompting further investigation by divers. Its proximity to known ancient sites has led scientists to explore possible links with early urban societies in the area.
A Massive Cairn Made of Unworked Stone
The structure rises nearly 10 meters (32 feet) high and spans approximately 70 meters (230 feet) in diameter. According to a press release published by the International Journal of Nautical Archaeology, it is composed of unhewn basalt cobbles and boulders, some measuring up to 1 meter in length. Divers reported no evidence of cutting or shaping. The stones appear randomly arranged, without walls or clear architectural patterns.
Researchers describe the structure as a cairn, a type of man-made pile of stones known from other regions and sometimes associated with burial practices, though no direct evidence confirms such a use here.
Evidence Suggests a Human-Made Origin
The structure does not resemble any natural geological formation. As explained by the research team, its shape and composition point clearly to human construction.

They propose that it was built on dry land and later submerged as the Sea of Galilee expanded. This interpretation is consistent with known environmental changes affecting the region over thousands of years. The scale of the structure implies a high level of organization. In the researchers’ view:
A Lost Bronze Age Link
Archaeologist Yitzhak Paz, from the Israel Antiquities Authority and Ben-Gurion University, said that the stone structure may date to the third millennium B.C.. He noted that similar megalithic phenomena have been identified in nearby areas.
One example cited in the study is Khirbet Beteiha, located about 30 kilometers to the northeast, which features concentric stone circles. These parallels suggest the underwater structure could belong to the same cultural context.
If this dating is confirmed, the structure would have been located near Bet Yerah (or Khirbet Kerak), a major settlement of the time. Archaeologist Raphael Greenberg noted that the city covered 30 hectares and had up to 5,000 inhabitants, with fortified defenses and organized urban planning.
No underwater excavation has yet been carried out, leaving the structure’s function and exact age uncertain.
