5,000-year-old rock art depicting the oldest nativity scene ever found has been found in Egypt’s Sahara Desert: A newborn between parents, two animals, and a star in the east.

Reminiscent of the Bible’s account of Jesus’s birth, the prehistoric painting predates the biblical account by around 3,000 years.

    The wise men in the Nativity myth were actually a representation of the Zoroastrian and the eastern kingdoms, literally bowing down to their new Lord.
