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But historians question the use of the Bible as a historical reference because most events mentioned in the text lack historical evidence.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
What you stated was blatantly untrue. "No credible historians..." There are credible historians who agree and disagree that there is evidence for certain people and events. Many historians, on both sides of that fence, also deal in other historical figures and events that people consider to have taken place that have little to do with what is in the Bible. That doesn't mean everybody agrees on everything, but that's fine. It's not fair (or rational) to assume that certain people lack credibility because they don't share your individual opinion on something.
