Cribs, Inns, Mangers, and more!



Fascinating article here, just as I thought we'd seen enough of cradles and cribs!

According to archaeologists, the infant Jesus was laid, not in a woodshed outside the local Howard Johnson, but rather in the storeroom or animals' room (with manger) because there was no room in the upper room ("inn").

Interesting things happen when hallowed tradition meets handy trowel.
