Details
Jehohanan (Yehohanan) was a man put to death by crucifixion in the 1st century CE, whose ossuary was found in 1968 when building contractors working in Giv'at ha-Mivtar, a Jewish neighborhood in northern East Jerusalem, Israel, accidentally uncovered a Jewish tomb. The Jewish stone ossuary had the Hebrew inscription "Jehohanan the son of Hagkol". In his initial anthropological observations in 1970 at Hebrew University, Nicu Haas, concluded Jehohanan was crucified with his arms stretched out with his forearms nailed, supporting crucifixion on a two-beamed Latin cross. However, the 1985 reappraisal by Joseph Zias of the Israel Department of Antiquities and Museums and Dr. Eliezer Sekeles at the Hebrew University - Hadassah Medical School discovered multiple errors in Haas's observations: the heel nail was shorter than Haas reported and the nail pierced only one heel, pieces of bone had been misidentified and some of the bone fragments were from another individual, the lack of traumatic injury to the forearm and metacarpals of the hand suggested the arms were tied rather than nailed to the cross and Jehohanan may have extended his arms upward on a crux simplex (simple upright stake).
