Talk:Tomb of Benei Hezir

Erroneous name
Every other aspect of the name might be open to debate (i.e. tomb or cave, Bney or Benei, "tomb of ..." or "... tomb") but there can be absolutley no debate that the name is "Hezir" and not "Hazir", not only is unfathomable that a Jewish priestly family would go by that name (Hazir=pig), and not only is this the name as quoted in all the publications, but the name itself appears in the Bible, in the book of Ezra and in Chronicles.

As the the rest of the name, I prpose to borrow from the fairly recet and most comprehensive english publication regarding the tomb:
 * Dan Barag, "The 2000-2001 exploration of the tombs of Benei Hezir and Zechariah", Israel Exploration Journal", 53 (1), Israel Exploration Society, Jerusalem, 2003

I'm going to rename the article now, and if anyone has a prefernce for any of the other alternative feasible names, feel free to voice them. Daniel Tzvi (talk)
