The bullet that belonged to TE Lawrence

Archaeologists find bullet that supports TE Lawrence's account of the Arab revolt (1916-1918). Neil Faulkner says the bullet fired from a Colt pistol, and other evidence found during 10 years of field work, may prove TE Lawrence's own account of a famous ambush on a Turkish train on the Jordanian-Saudi border.
