Did Archaeologists Just Find Evidence of the Real Hezekiah?

The reign of King Hezekiah is well-documented in the Old Testament, but until recently, there’s never been physical proof that the ruler mentioned in 2 Kings, Isaiah and 2 Chronicles ever existed. A new discovery may change that. Archeologists in Israel have uncovered what they believe may be the seal of the king on a small artifact that reads “Belonging to Hezekiah [son of] Ahaz king of Judah.” However, because it was found on contested landed, some researchers are skeptical of the discovery, and say more research needs to be done to confirm its authenticity.
