An 1,800-year-old marble figurine of a Roman boxer is the newest discovery at Jerusalem's City of David archaeological treasure trove. What is believed to be the head of a boxer was found during excavations in the area of the Givati car park in the City of David, across the street from the Dung Gate leading to the Western Wall (Kotel).

Not long ago, one of the largest and most impressive coin hoards ever found in Jerusalem was discovered at the same site. It was found at about the same time that a gold earring, inlaid with expensive pearls and remarkably well preserved, was also uncovered at the site.
