The location that is now believed to be Dalmanutha is the same place a 2000-year-old fishing boat was discovered in 1986. Researchers say the area is full of ancient artifacts, some dating as early as the second of first century BCE. Berthold Werner/Wikimedia

A Biblical town that had a prominent role in the Gospel of Mark may have been discovered by British archeologists. 
 
The town is believed to be Dalmanutha -- where Jesus is said to have sailed to after he performed the miracles of feeding 5,000 with two fish and five loaves of bread at Bethsaida. 
 

The town is mentioned by name in the Gospel of Mark, but it can also be attributed to a passage found Matthew 15:39 that says, "And he sent away the multitude, and took ship, and came into the coasts of Magdala." According to The Huffington Post, Magdala "has been identified with some certainty as the modern-day town of Migdal" -- located off the coast near Israel's Ginosar Valley.

Research team leader Ken Dark says that the area between Migdal and the coast is full of archeological discoveries. The team, which embarked on the town during a regular field survey, believes that it is Dalmanutha due to artifacts uncovered there that date to what is known as the Common Era. 
 
"It is hard to imagine that a Roman-period coastal community of this size is nowhere mentioned in textual sources, and the site might be identified with one of the unlocated toponyms known from the Bible, perhaps the Dalmanutha of Mark 8:10," said Dark.
 
Speaking to Live Science, Dark added that many of the ancient finds hint to a prosperous town that appears to have thrived for centuries -- considering pottery pieces found in the area date from the second or first century BCE to around fifth century CE. And limestone vessel fragments and tesserae cubes "associated with Jewish purity practices in the early Roman period" allow for the theory that the city contained a Jewish community and a polytheistic one.
 
The proposed site of Dalmanutha was the same location that scientist discovered a 2,000-year-old boat in 1986. Dark says this discovery coupled with  "eights and stone anchors" and "the access to beaches suitable for landing boats" leads researchers to "imply" that the area was involved in fishing. They have not officially determined if the discovered town is Dalmanutha. But they noted that the town's size aligns with the identification.
