Always check "facts" when people state something. If I can find something in under 30 seconds, others can too.

LOL so they found it few months ago - silly me! But not really. This is was your article says:
“We, of course, did not find any artifacts that said ‘King David’ or ‘King Solomon’ but we discovered site signs of a social transformation in the region which are consistent with a change from Canaanite culture to a Judean culture.”
But historians question the use of the Bible as a historical reference because most events mentioned in the text lack historical evidence.
Inscribed stones have been found containing phrases referencing David, but his existence and story remains disputed among archaeologists.
And indeed there is a lot of tension, pressure and gain in finding historicity of David, but no amount of desire can make a fairy-tale true. Watch this documentary
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
