Default Archeology shows Jews lived near Jerusalem after 70 CE, until 132 CE

Ancient Village Discovery Raises Questions

Quote:
This is the first evidence that Jews lived so close to Jerusalem — about a mile away — after the destruction of the Second Temple, Sklar-Parnes said.

Archaeologists used pottery and coins found at the site to estimate that people lived there from around 70 to 132 A.D., when the Romans crushed a second Jewish revolt.
This is consistent with the thesis of Harold Leidner in The Fabrication of the Christ Myth, who decided that Paul survived past 70 CE.

I was under the impression that Jews as a whole weren't banned from Jerusalem until the Bar Kokhba revolt anyway. That's what Wikipedia says.

What I always heard was that after the destruction of the Second Temple, many were enslaved and deported, but they weren't officially banned until 135.
