|||
== Etimologi == |
|||
=== Kata Ibrani ''Netzer'' === |
|||
Nama '''Nazaret''' diyakini berasal dari akar kata Ibrani "<big>נצר</big>" ('''{{Strong|netzer|05342}}'''; ="Tunas" atau "taruk yang tumbuh"). Huruf "z" pada "Nazaret" dalam bahasa Ibrani ditulis dengan huruf "צ" ([[tsade (huruf Ibrani)|''tsade'' [TS atau TZ]]]), seperti pada "netzer" (= bahasa Indonesia "tunas; taruk"), bukanlah huruf "ז" ([[zayin (huruf Ibrani)|''zayin'' [Z]]]) yang membentuk kata "nazar" (= bahasa Indonesia "kaul"). Hal ini dikuatkan dengan penyebutan kota Nazaret dalam teks rabbinik Yahudi dari abad ke-4 M, misalnya "''Midrash Qoheleth''", yang menggunakan ejaan "N-TS-R" (menguatkan rujukan [[Matius 2#Ayat 23|Matius 2:23]] kepada [[Yesaya 11#Ayat 1|Yesaya 11:1]]). Penemuan sebuah tulisan Ibrani di [[Kaisarea]] pada tahun 1962 juga menguatkan ejaan "N-TS-R". Meskipun tulisan dari Kaisarea ini bertarikh ~ 300 M, isinya memuat catatan penugasan sebuah keluarga imam ke kota Nazaret pada tahun ~ 150 M, yang menunjukkan bahwa pengejaan nama kota ini jauh lebih tua dari catatan itu sendiri.<ref>Michael. Avi-Yonah, “A List of Priestly Courses from Caesarea.” Israel Exploration Journal 12 (1962):137-139.</ref> |
|||
=== Nama Arab ''an-Nāṣira'' === |
|||
Nama kota Nazaret yang dalam bahasa Arab adalah ''an-Nāṣira'', sedangkan [[Yesus]] ({{lang-ar|يَسُوع}}, ''Yasū`'') juga disebut ''an-Nāṣirī'', mencerminkan tradisi Arab untuk memberi [[Nisbah|atribusi]] nama menurut dari mana seorang tokoh terkemuka itu berasal baik sebagai istilah geografi atau kesukuan. Dalam [[Qur'an]], orang Kristen dirujuk sebagai ''naṣārā'', artinya "para pengikut an-Nāṣirī", atau "mereka yang mengikuti Yesus orang Nazaret".<ref name=Antounp50>{{cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=9cn1gwQXfgkC&pg=PA50&dq=nasira+nazareth#v=onepage&q=nasira%20nazareth&f=false|title=Syria: society, culture, and polity|first1=Richard T.|last1=Antoun|first2=Donald|last2=Quataert|editors=Richard T. Antoun|publisher=SUNY Press|year=1991|ISBN=9780791407134}}</ref> |
|||
== Tradisi Kristen == |
|||
[[Yesus]] [[Kristus]] dibesarkan di Nazaret, sehingga dikenal dengan sebutan "Yesus orang Nazaret" (lihat [[INRI]]). Kata Ibrani "<big>נצר</big>" ('''{{Strong|netzer|05342}}''' ="Tunas" atau "taruk yang tumbuh") mungkin merupakan akar kata dari nama '''Nazaret'''. Yesus disebut sebagai "orang Nazaret" ([[Matius 2:23]]; {{lang-el|Ναζωραῖος}}, ''{{Strong|Nazōraios|3480}}''; {{lang-he|נצרי}}, ''netzeri'') yang bisa berarti "orang dari Nazaret" atau "sang Tunas". Dia akan timbul sebagai [[Pohon Isai|Tunas dari tunggul Isai]], yaitu ayah Daud,<ref name=fulllife>The Full Life Study Bible. Life Publishers International. 1992. Teks Penuntun edisi Bahasa Indonesia. Penerbit Gandum Mas. 1993, 1994.</ref> sebagaimana dinubuatkan oleh nabi [[Yesaya]] dalam [[Kitab Yesaya|kitabnya]] [[Yesaya 11:1|pasal 11:1]]: |
|||
:''"Suatu tunas akan keluar dari tunggul Isai, dan <u>taruk yang akan tumbuh</u> dari pangkalnya akan berbuah."''<ref>{{Ysy|11|1}}</ref> |
|||
Dengan demikian sebutan di atas kayu salib [[INRI]], yang biasanya diartikan: "Yesus orang Nazaret raja orang Yahudi" dapat pula diartikan: "Yesus sang Tunas raja orang Yahudi". |

|||
Bentuk kata ''Nazara'' juga ditemukan pada rujukan non-alkitabiah tertua untuk kota ini, suatu kutipan oleh [[Sextus Julius Africanus]] bertarikh sekitar 221 M<ref>Eusebius ''Ecclesiastical History,'' 1, vii,14, cited in Carruth, ibid. p.415.</ref><!-- (lihat "Middle Roman to Byzantine Periods" below).

The first non-Christian reference to Nazareth is an inscription on a marble fragment from a [[synagogue]] found in [[Caesarea Maritima]] in 1962.<ref>{{cite journal | last1 = Avi-Yonah | first1 = M. | year = 1962 | title = A List of Priestly Courses from Caesarea | url = | journal = Israel Exploration Journal | volume = 12 | issue = | pages = 137–139 }}</ref> This fragment gives the town's name in Hebrew as נצרת (n-ṣ-r-t). The inscription dates to c. AD 300 and chronicles the assignment of priests that took place at some time after the [[Bar Kokhba revolt]], AD 132-35.<ref>R. Horsley, ''Archaeology, History and Society in Galilee.'' Trinity Press International, 1996, p. 110.</ref> (See "Middle Roman to Byzantine Periods" below.) An 8th-century AD Hebrew inscription, which was the earliest known Hebrew reference to Nazareth prior to the discovery of the inscription above, uses the same form.<ref name=Carruthp415/> |

===Nazarenes, Nasranis, ''Notzrim,'' Christians=== |
|||
{{main article|Nazarene (title)}} |
|||
Around 331, Eusebius records that from the name Nazareth Christ was called a Nazoraean, and that in earlier centuries Christians, were once called Nazarenes.<ref>Bulletin of the School of Oriental and African Studies: Volume 65, Issue 1 University of London. School of Oriental and African Studies – 2002 "... around 331, Eusebius says of the place name Nazareth that ' from this name the Christ was called a Nazoraean, and in ancient times we, who are now called Christians, were once called [[Nazarene (sect)|Nazarenes]] ';6 thus he attributes this designation ..."</ref> [[Tertullian]] (Against Marcion 4:8) records that "for this reason the Jews call us 'Nazarenes'." In the New Testament Christians are called "Christians" three times by Paul in Romans, and "Nazarenes" once by [[Tertullus]], a Jewish lawyer. The Rabbinic and modern Hebrew name for Christians, ''notzrim,'' is also thought to derive from Nazareth, and be connected with Tertullus' charge against Paul of being a member of the sect of the [[Nazarene (title)|Nazarenes]], ''Nazoraioi'', "men of Nazareth" in Acts. Against this some medieval Jewish polemical texts connect ''notzrim'' with the ''netsarim'' "watchmen" of Ephraim in Jeremiah 31:6. In Syriac Aramaic ''Nasrath'' (ܢܨܪܬ) is used for Nazareth, while "Nazarenes" (Acts 24:5) and "of Nazareth" are both ''Nasrani'' or ''Nasraya'' (ܕܢܨܪܝܐ) an adjectival form.<ref>Bruce Manning Metzger The early versions of the New Testament p86 – 1977 "Peshitta Matt, and Luke ... nasraya, 'of Nazareth'."</ref><ref>[[William Jennings (Syriacist)|William Jennings]] ''Lexicon to the Syriac New Testament'' 1926 p143</ref><ref>[[Robert Payne Smith]] ''Compendious Syriac Dictionary'' 1903 p349</ref> ''[[Nasrani (Arabic term for Christian)|Nasrani]]'' is used in the Quran for Christians, and in [[Modern Standard Arabic]] may refer more widely to Western people.<ref>{{cite web|title=Nasara|url=http://www.mazyanbizaf.com/mbs002|website=Mazyan Bizaf Show}}</ref> [[Saint Thomas Christians]], an ancient community of [[Jewish Christians]] in [[India]] who trace their origins to evangelistic activity of [[Thomas the Apostle]] in the 1st century, are known by the name [[Nasrani]]s even today.<ref name=Zupanov>{{cite book|last=Županov|first= Ines G.|authorlink=Ines G.

Archaeological researchers have revealed that a funerary and cult center at [[Kfar HaHoresh]], about two miles ({{convert|2|mi|abbr=out|disp=output only}}) from current Nazareth, dates back roughly 9000 years to the [[Pre-Pottery Neolithic B]] era.<ref> |

Kuijt (ed.), ''Social Configurations of the Near Eastern Neolithic: Community Identity, Hierarchical Organization, and Ritual ''(1997).</ref> The remains of some 65 individuals were found, buried under huge horizontal headstone structures, some of which consisted of up to 3 tons of locally produced white plaster. Decorated human skulls uncovered there have led archaeologists to identify Kfar HaHoresh as a major cult centre in that era.<ref>{{cite web |title=Pre-Christian Rituals at Nazareth |date=November–December 2003 |publisher=Archaeology: A Publication of the Archaeological Institute of America |url=http://www.archaeology.org/0311/newsbriefs/nazareth.html}}</ref> |

In 1620 the Catholic Church purchased an area in the Nazareth basin measuring approximately {{convert|100|x|150|m|2|abbr=on|lk=out}} on the side of the hill known as the Nebi Sa'in. The Franciscan priest [[Bellarmino Bagatti]], "Director of Christian Archaeology", carried out extensive excavation of this "Venerated Area" from 1955 to 1965. Fr. Bagatti uncovered pottery dating from the [[Middle Bronze Age]] (2200 to 1500 BC) and ceramics, silos and grinding mills from the [[Iron Age]] (1500 to 586 BC) which indicated substantial settlement in the Nazareth basin at that time. However, lack of archaeological evidence for Nazareth from [[Assyria]]n, [[Babylonia]]n, [[History of Iran|Persian]], [[Hellenistic period|Hellenistic]] or Early [[Ancient Rome|Roman]] times, at least in the major excavations between 1955 and 1990, shows that the settlement apparently came to an abrupt end about 720 BC, when the [[Assyrian captivity of Israel|Assyrians]] destroyed many towns in the area.{{citation needed|date=March 2017}} |

According to the [[Gospel of Luke]], Nazareth was the home village of Mary as well as the site of the [[Annunciation]] (when the angel [[Gabriel]] informed Mary that she would give birth to Jesus). According to the [[Gospel of Matthew]], Joseph and Mary resettled in Nazareth after returning from the [[flight to Egypt|flight from Bethlehem to Egypt]]. According to the Bible, Jesus grew up in Nazareth from some point in his childhood. However, some modern scholars also regard Nazareth as the birthplace of Jesus.<ref>[[John P.

James F. Strange, an American archaeologist, notes: "Nazareth is not mentioned in ancient Jewish sources earlier than the third century CE. This likely reflects its lack of prominence both in Galilee and in Judaea."<ref>Article "Nazareth" in the ''Anchor Bible Dictionary.'' New York: Doubleday, 1992.</ref> Strange originally calculated the population of Nazareth at the time of Christ as "roughly 1,600 to 2,000 people" but, in a subsequent publication, revised this figure down to "a maximum of about 480."<ref>E.

Alexandre told reporters, "The discovery is of the utmost importance since it reveals for the very first time a house from the Jewish village of Nazareth."<ref>[http://israel21c.org/news/house-from-jesus-time-excavated/ House from Jesus' time excavated] (December 23, 2009) in [http://www.israel21c.org/ ''Israel 21c Innovation News Service''] Retrieved 2010-01-05</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.antiquities.org.il/article_eng.aspx?sec_id=25&subj_id=240&id=1638|title=For the Very First Time: A Residential Building from the Time of Jesus was Exposed in the Heart of Nazareth (12/21/09)|last=|first=|date=|website=Israel Antiquities Authority|publisher=|access-date=}}</ref> |

Other sources state that during Jesus' time, Nazareth had a population of 400 and one public bath, which was important for civic and religious purposes.<ref>Korb, Scott. ''Life in Year One.''

The Gospel of Luke says; "[And they led Jesus] to the brow of the hill on which their city was built, that they might throw him down headlong".{{Bibleref2c|Lk.|4:29}} From the ninth century CE and probably earlier, tradition associated Christ's evasion of the attempt on his life to the 'Hill of the Leap' (''Jabal al-Qafza'') overlooking the [[Jezreel Valley|Jezreel Plain]], some {{convert|3|km|0|abbr=on}} south of Nazareth.<ref>Denys Pringle, ''The Churches of the Crusader Kingdom of Jerusalem,'' vol.11, L-Z Cambridge University Press, 1998 p.45.

A tablet at the Bibliothèque Nationale in Paris, dating to 50 CE, was sent from Nazareth to Paris in 1878. It contains an inscription known as the "Ordinance of Caesar" that outlines the penalty of death for those who violate tombs or graves. However, it is suspected that this inscription came to Nazareth from somewhere else (possibly [[Sepphoris]]). Bagatti writes: "we are not certain that it was found in Nazareth, even though it came from Nazareth to Paris. At Nazareth there lived various vendors of antiquities who got ancient material from several places."<ref>Bagatti, B. ''Excavations in Nazareth,'' vol. 1 (1969), p. 249.</ref> C.

Although it is mentioned in the New Testament gospels, there are no extant non-biblical references to Nazareth until around 200 CE, when [[Sextus Julius Africanus]], cited by Eusebius (''Church History'' 1.7.14), speaks of Nazara as a village in Judea and locates it near an as-yet unidentified "Cochaba".<ref>"A few of the careful, however, having obtained private records of their own, either by remembering the names or by getting them in some other way from the registers, pride themselves on preserving the memory of their noble extraction. Among these are those already mentioned, called Desposyni, on account of their connection with the family of the Saviour. Coming from Nazara and Cochaba, villages of Judea, into other parts of the world, they drew the aforesaid genealogy from memory and from the book of daily records as faithfully as possible." (Eusebius, [http://www.ccel.org/ccel/schaff/npnf201.iii.vi.vii.html ''Church History'', Book I, Chapter VII],§ 14)</ref> In the same passage Africanus writes of ''[[desposyni|desposunoi]]'' – relatives of Jesus – who he claims ''kept the records of their descent with great care''. A few authors have argued that the absence of 1st and 2nd century CE textual references to Nazareth suggests that the town may not have been inhabited in Jesus' day.<ref>T. Cheyne, "Nazareth".

Suatu inskripsi [[bahasa Ibrani]] yang ditemukan di [[Kaisarea Maritima|Kaisarea]] bertarikh akhir abad ke-3 atau awal abad ke-4 M menyebutkan Nazaret sebagai rumah keluarga [[kohen|imam (''kohen'')]] Hapizzez setelah [[Pemberontakan Bar Kokhba]] (132–135 M).<ref>Keluarga ini rupanya telah pindah ke Nazaret setelah [[Perang Yahudi-Romawi Pertama|Pemberontakan Yahudi pertama]] ([[70]] M), meskipun ada yang berspekulasi bahwa relokasi ini mungkin "jauh pada abad ke-2 (atau bahkan abad ke-3) [M]." '' History and Society in Galilee'', 1996, p. 110. Pada tahun 131 M, Kaisar Romawi [[Hadrian]] melarang orang Yahudi untuk tinggal di [[Yerusalem]], memaksa penduduk Yahudi untuk pindah ke tempat lain.</ref> Dari tiga fragmen yang diketemukan, inskripsi ini tampaknya memuat [[Pembagian rombongan Imam Israel|daftar 24 rombongan imam]] (lihat [[1 Tawarikh 24|Kitab 1 Tawarikh 24]][[1 Tawarikh 24#Ayat 7–19|:7-19]]; [[Nehemia 11:12]]), di mana setiap grup (atau keluarga) ditugaskan menurut urutannya dengan nama setiap kota atau desa di [[Galilea]] di mana mereka tinggal.

Wakil rakyat di Nazaret sering kali mengeluh tentang perlakuan kota ini oleh pemerintah Israel, yang mereka anggap sebagai diskriminasi pemerintah terhadap populasi Arabnya. Tahun-tahun belakangan ini, juga ada kontroversi tentang rencana pembuatan masjid besar di samping Basilika ''Annunciation''. |

Lubang galian lain, yang pintu masuknya rupanya disamarkan, telah digali dan pecahan tembikar dari periode Romawi Awal juga ditemukan di dalamnya." Arkeolog Yardenna Alexandre menambahkan bahwa "berdasarkan ekskavasi-ekskavasi lain yang pernah saya lakukan di desa-desa sekitarnya, lubang ini mungkin digali sebagai persiapan orang Yahudi untuk melindungi diri selama Revolusi Besar melawan orang Romawi pada tahun 67 M".<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.mfa.gov.il/MFA/History/Early+History+-+Archaeology/Residential_building_time_Jesus_Nazareth_21-Dec-2009.htm |title=Residential building from the time of Jesus exposed in Nazareth 21-Dec-2009 |publisher=Mfa.gov.il |date=2009-12-21 |accessdate=2012-11-16}}</ref> |

Nazaret (bahasa Ibrani: נָצְרַת, Natzrat; bahasa Arab: النَّاصِرَة, an-Nāṣira; bahasa Aram: ܢܨܪܬ, Naṣrath) adalah sebuah kota kuno di utara Israel. Saat ini, kota ini merupakan kota Arab-Israel terbesar di Israel dan dikenal sebagai "ibu kota Arab di Israel".[2] Nazaret merupakan ibu kota dan kota terbesar di Distrik Utara, Israel. Pada tahun 2018, jumlah penduduknya adalah 77,064[1] jiwa, yang terutama adalah warga Arab di Israel, di antaranya 69% beragama Islam dan 30,9% beragama Kristen.[2][3][4][5] Nazerat Illit ("Nazaret Atas"), menyatakan sebagai kota terpisah pada bulan Juni 1974, dibangun di tepi kota Nazaret Tua, dan mempunyai penduduk orang Yahudi sebanyak 40.312 jiwa pada tahun 2014.[6]
Dalam bagian Perjanjian Baru di Alkitab Kristen, kota ini dicatat sebagai tempat tinggal Yesus pada masa mudanya,[7] dan karenanya menjadi sebuah pusat peziarahan Kristen, dengan banyak tempat-tempat bersejarah memperingati peristiwa-peristiwa alkitabiah.

Etimologi
[sunting | sunting sumber]Kata Ibrani Netzer
[sunting | sunting sumber]Nama Nazaret diyakini berasal dari akar kata Ibrani "נצר" (netzer; ="Tunas" atau "taruk yang tumbuh"). Huruf "z" pada "Nazaret" dalam bahasa Ibrani ditulis dengan huruf "צ" (tsade [TS atau TZ]), seperti pada "netzer" (= bahasa Indonesia "tunas; taruk"), bukanlah huruf "ז" (zayin [Z]) yang membentuk kata "nazar" (= bahasa Indonesia "kaul"). Hal ini dikuatkan dengan penyebutan kota Nazaret dalam teks rabbinik Yahudi dari abad ke-4 M, misalnya "Midrash Qoheleth", yang menggunakan ejaan "N-TS-R" (menguatkan rujukan Matius 2:23 kepada Yesaya 11:1). Penemuan sebuah tulisan Ibrani di Kaisarea pada tahun 1962 juga menguatkan ejaan "N-TS-R". Meskipun tulisan dari Kaisarea ini bertarikh ~ 300 M, isinya memuat catatan penugasan sebuah keluarga imam ke kota Nazaret pada tahun ~ 150 M, yang menunjukkan bahwa pengejaan nama kota ini jauh lebih tua dari catatan itu sendiri.[8]
Nama Arab an-Nāṣira
[sunting | sunting sumber]Nama kota Nazaret yang dalam bahasa Arab adalah an-Nāṣira, sedangkan Yesus (bahasa Arab: يَسُوع, Yasū`) juga disebut an-Nāṣirī, mencerminkan tradisi Arab untuk memberi atribusi nama menurut dari mana seorang tokoh terkemuka itu berasal baik sebagai istilah geografi atau kesukuan. Dalam Qur'an, orang Kristen dirujuk sebagai naṣārā, artinya "para pengikut an-Nāṣirī", atau "mereka yang mengikuti Yesus orang Nazaret".[9]
Tradisi Kristen
[sunting | sunting sumber]Yesus Kristus dibesarkan di Nazaret, sehingga dikenal dengan sebutan "Yesus orang Nazaret" (lihat INRI). Kata Ibrani "נצר" (netzer ="Tunas" atau "taruk yang tumbuh") mungkin merupakan akar kata dari nama Nazaret. Yesus disebut sebagai "orang Nazaret" (Matius 2:23; bahasa Yunani: Ναζωραῖος, Nazōraios; bahasa Ibrani: נצרי, netzeri) yang bisa berarti "orang dari Nazaret" atau "sang Tunas". Dia akan timbul sebagai Tunas dari tunggul Isai, yaitu ayah Daud,[10] sebagaimana dinubuatkan oleh nabi Yesaya dalam kitabnya pasal 11:1:
- "Suatu tunas akan keluar dari tunggul Isai, dan taruk yang akan tumbuh dari pangkalnya akan berbuah."[11]
Dengan demikian sebutan di atas kayu salib INRI, yang biasanya diartikan: "Yesus orang Nazaret raja orang Yahudi" dapat pula diartikan: "Yesus sang Tunas raja orang Yahudi".

Bentuk kata Nazara juga ditemukan pada rujukan non-alkitabiah tertua untuk kota ini, suatu kutipan oleh Sextus Julius Africanus bertarikh sekitar 221 M[12] Suatu inskripsi bahasa Ibrani yang ditemukan di Kaisarea bertarikh akhir abad ke-3 atau awal abad ke-4 M menyebutkan Nazaret sebagai rumah keluarga imam (kohen) Hapizzez setelah Pemberontakan Bar Kokhba (132–135 M).[13] Dari tiga fragmen yang diketemukan, inskripsi ini tampaknya memuat daftar 24 rombongan imam (lihat Kitab 1 Tawarikh 24:7-19; Nehemia 11:12), di mana setiap grup (atau keluarga) ditugaskan menurut urutannya dengan nama setiap kota atau desa di Galilea di mana mereka tinggal. Nazaret tidak ditulis dengan huruf "z" melainkan dengan huruf Ibrani tsade (jadi "Natsaret").[14] Eleazar Kalir (seorang penyair Ibrani yang diberi tarikh antara abad ke-6 sampai ke-10 M) menyebut ada suatu lokalitas yang jelas di dalam wilayah Nazaret memuat nama Nazaret נצרת (dalam hal ini divokalisasi sebagai "Nitzrat"), yang merupakan rumah dari keturunan keluarga Kohen ke-18 Happitzetz (הפצץ), selama paling sedikit beberapa abad setelah pemberontakan Bar Kochva.
Nazaret modern
[sunting | sunting sumber]Nazaret terletak di antara celah selatan di Pegunungan Libanon, di kaki bukit yang terjal, sekitar 23 kilometer dari Laut Galilea dan sekitar 6 km barat Gunung Tabor, pada ketinggian kaki. Kota modern ini terletak lebih rendah di kaki bukit di banding zaman kuno. Jalan utama untuk lalu lintas antara Mesir dan Asia dalam melewati Nazaret dekat kaki Tabor, dan ke arah utara ke Damaskus. Kota ini memiliki populasi 60.000 orang.
Mayoritas penduduk Nazaret adalah Arab Israel, sekita 35-40% adalah Kristen dan sisanya Muslim. Pemerintah Israel membuat sebuah kota baru sejak 1950-an disebut Natzrat Illit (נצרת עילית "Nazareth Atas", (Ibrani Baku) Náẓərat ʿIllit) dan mengisinya dengan komunitas Yahudi.
Wakil rakyat di Nazaret sering kali mengeluh tentang perlakuan kota ini oleh pemerintah Israel, yang mereka anggap sebagai diskriminasi pemerintah terhadap populasi Arabnya. Tahun-tahun belakangan ini, juga ada kontroversi tentang rencana pembuatan masjid besar di samping Basilika Annunciation.

Arkeologi
[sunting | sunting sumber]"Venerated area" dekat Basilica of the Annunciation
[sunting | sunting sumber]Penggalian yang dilakukan sebelum tahun 1931 di "daerah kudus" ("venerated area") ordo Fransiskan (di lereng bukit yang disebut sebagai Jabal Nebi Sa'in, terentang di utara Basilika Kabar Sukacita) menunjukkan tidak ada tanda-tanda pemukiman Yunani atau Romawi di sana,[19] tetapi penggalian berikutnya di bawah pimpinan Fr. Bagatti, yang menjabat sebagai arkeolog utama situs-situs kudus di Nazaret, berhasil menemukan sejumlah besar artifak zaman Romawi dan Bizantin,[20] menjadi saksi tak terbantahkan adanya kehidupan manusia di sana sejak abad ke-2 M dan seterusnya. John Dominic Crossan, seorang sarjana Perjanjian Baru, menafsirkan dari gambar arkeologi Bagatti bahwa desa itu sangat kecil dan tidak lebih dari suatu hamlet yang tidak terlalu menonjol.[21]
Rumah Romawi awal
[sunting | sunting sumber]Reruntuhan rumah tinggal dari zaman Romawi awal telah ditemukan pada tahun 2009 di dekat Basilika Kabar Sukacitao dan dipertontonkan dalam "International Marian Center of Nazareth". Menurut Israel Antiquities Authority, "Artifak-artifak yang ditemukan di dalam bangunan itu sedikit jumlahnya dan kebanyakan berupa fragmen cawan-cawan tembikar dari periode Romawi Awal (abad ke-1 dan ke-2 M)... Lubang galian lain, yang pintu masuknya rupanya disamarkan, telah digali dan pecahan tembikar dari periode Romawi Awal juga ditemukan di dalamnya." Arkeolog Yardenna Alexandre menambahkan bahwa "berdasarkan ekskavasi-ekskavasi lain yang pernah saya lakukan di desa-desa sekitarnya, lubang ini mungkin digali sebagai persiapan orang Yahudi untuk melindungi diri selama Revolusi Besar melawan orang Romawi pada tahun 67 M".[22]
Pekuburan Kokh
[sunting | sunting sumber]Semua kuburan setelah Zaman Besi di cekungan Nazaret (sekitar dua dusin) bercirikan gaya kokh (jamak: kokhim) atau kemudian; gaya ini mungkin pertama kali muncul di Galilea pada pertengahan abad ke-1 M.[23] Pekuburan Kokh di wilayah Nazaret telah diekskavasi oleh B. Bagatti, N. Feig, Z. Yavor, dan dicatat oleh Z. Gal.[24]
Rumah permandian kuno di Sumur Maria
[sunting | sunting sumber]Pada pertengahan tahun 1990-an, seorang penjaga toko menemukan saluran-saluran di bawah tokonya di dekat Sumur Maria di Nazaret. Saluran-saluran itu diidentifikasi sebagai hypocaust suatu rumah permandian.[25] Ekskavasi pada tahyun 1997–98 menunjukkan bekas-bekas bertarikh zaman Romawi, Perang Salib, Mamluk dan Utsmaniyah.[26][27][28][29][30]
