VG.** "Joseph Caiaphas was the Jewish high priest, who is believed to have been involved in the Sanhedrin trial of Jesus and to have organized the plot to kill Jesus.... From 1888 to 1914, French Assumptionist archaeologists carried out excavations in the area, which revealed a 5th century church, The Church of St.Peter in Gallicantu, or St.Peter of the Cockcrow. This church is famous as well for being the place where Peter denied Jesus three times, then repented and reconciled with Christ after the resurrection...According to the assumptionist beliefs, the scene of Peter's disgrace was the courtyard of Caiaphas. Below this church, excavations revealed a large grotto, which may have been originally a tomb, which later served as a prison". (tripfreakz).

“All the same ... it’s a very important name. And I don’t expect there are many bears in the world called Paddington!”
A lonely toy bear on an empty shop shelf on Christmas Eve in 1956 first captured the attention of Michael Bond, who kindly shared Paddington with the world.
