these would be part of a necklace, typical of women's dress across the roman world. >> in galilee in the first century, the jewelry that women wore would have been probably stuff that was locally sourced, wood or beautiful glass beads or fiber perhaps. >> i think it's conceivable that mary had jewelry on, that she used to wear jewelry. >> earlier finds from the site include a series of metal rods with flattened ends, which probably are makeup spatulas. >> if you were a woman in the first century in a rural place like galilee, you probably wouldn't want makeup on all the time when you went laboring in the fields, for instance. it would have been reserved for special occasions, perhaps for feast days. >> it's fair to think of a woman from a family of craftsman, for example, as having access to at least a modest amount of cosmetics. >> narrator: a woman's life in first century nazareth was centered on the home and her children. >> mary, like most jewish women, would have spent her day providing for her family, which would have included weaving, fetching water and cooking. >> mary as a j

he's a fisherman from galilee. he's probably never been to jerusalem before. so imagine what kind of an experience it was for him to enter this incredibly busy, bustling city. >> this is the moment where peter is thinking, are we about to see israel restored it its former glory? are we going to finally get rid of the romans? are we finally going to see a righteous king ruling over israel? so i imagine peter being full of hope, full of excitement as they're going into jerusalem. >> you can imagine that peter is thinking, this is the beginning of some kind of revolution that they're going to be taking over, that they're going to have power and authority and that this is the beginning of something glorious. expectations are running very high. >> but according to the gospels, within days peter will have abandoned jesus and stood by as his friend and teacher is taken to the cross. i really didn't expect to learn so many interesting details. ancestrydna was able to tell me where my father's family came from in columbia. they pinpointed the columbian and ecuador regi
