In addition, many synagogues display either a Menorah or an artistic representation of a menorah. Shemtov is credited for erecting the first public Chanukah menorah in the United States. An ancient Priene Synagogue with carved images of the menorah has also been discovered. This lamp represents the continually lit "ner Elohim" of the menorah used in Temple times. The "hekhal" contained the Menorah, Altar of Incense, and Table of the Showbread. The menorah symbolized the ideal of universal enlightenment. It is the earliest menorah of that period to be discovered outside of Jerusalem. This type of menorah is called a "hanukiah" in Modern Hebrew. There is no biblical mention of the fate of the menorah. It is also known as Nasrani Menorah, Persian Cross, or Mar Thoma Sleeva. They call it the Nasrani Menorah or Mar Thoma Sliba.
