Judah’s eighth-century b.c.e. King Hezekiah is well known from archaeology, as well as the Bible. His name is mentioned on the prisms of Assyrian King Sennacherib, as well as on several bullae, recovered via excavation or on the antiquities market.

Yet for not only Hezekiah in particular, but the kings of Judah in general, there has been one thing missing: “monumental”-style inscriptions, or stelae, of the sort well known and preserved in the likes of Assyria, Babylon and Egypt.
