Six official clay seals found by an archaeological team at a small site in Israel offer evidence that supports the existence of biblical kings David and Solomon. Many modern scholars dismiss David and Solomon as mythological figures and believe no kingdom could have existed in the region at the time the Bible recounted their activities. The new finds provide evidence that some type of government activity was conducted there in that period.
This find happened before that video btw.
All it says is that it shows evidence of 'some' type of government activity was conducted in that period, not evidence of David and Solomon, she would have known this, as you rightly pointed out the find happened before the video, she would be well aware of it.

They don't directly reference David or Solomon, but do provide evidence of government activity during that period
It's amazing what extra's theist read into discoveries.

It's not 'thiests' that are making the connection to David and Solomon, it's the experts, whom by your own admission you believe without question.
