95% of the Jews of the world are the Ashkenazi. I do not know exactly what a Sephardic Jew is? Is the Jew of Yemen and also of Spain Sephardic Jews? You need to understand that the Jews who were calling themselves Egyptian Jews, Moroccan Jews, Algerian Jews, Tunisian Jews, Turkish Jews were not indigenous to those countries but they were the descendants of the Jews who fled Spain in 1942 and Portugal in 1946 and they went to these Muslim countries and they settled in those Muslim countries.
How is archeology from 2700 years ago connected to the European Jews who converted to Judaism only in the 9th century and according to their own DNA, they are 100% European and their European feet had never touched the land of Palestine before 1882 when they arrived as Zionists? Islam was introduced to the world 1,800 years ago but can any archaeological findings in Mecca going back to the 7th century be claimed by the Muslims of Indonesia? The Ashkenazi have nothing to do with archaeological findings on that land.
