Inskrypcja staro-hebrajska z Siloe jako świadectwo pamięci historycznej
The Ancient Hebrew Siloam tunnel inscription has unique characteristics
among Northwest Semitic epigraphic texts. It does not mention the king or deity nor
does it follow any known literary genre. Its insistence on technical details indicates
that it was commissioned by the builders of the tunnel with the purpose of commemorating
their engineering achievement. Given this background and nature, the Siloam
inscription is a unique testimony of historical consciousness among middle and lower
class members of the society in the 8th-7th century Judah who felt the need to record
their story in writing.
