More than a hundred inked potsherds from a Judahite border fort: ration orders, troop movements, a warning about Edom. Several mention "the house of YHWH", and the names on them — Hananyahu, Gemaryahu, Meshullam — are the ordinary Judahite names of the same period as Jeremiah.
…and as to the matter which you commanded me — it is well. He is in the house of YHWH.
