With Josephus recording two imperial decrees (49 and 48 BC), we can be certain the Sardis synagogue existed before 49 BC, even as far back as 220 BC wherein Sardis joins a family of being among the earliest synagogues on earth. 3. The importance of the city of Sardis, as a commercial center of the former capital of the Persian empire which dates back as far as 536 BC, is matched by the Jewish synagogue in Sardis with a continuous 665 year occupation history (49 BC - 616 AD) 4. Although inscriptional evidence from Josephus Antiquities 14.235 makes the existence of a synagogue building certain in 49 BC, the synagogue likely dates back to the time of Seleucid King Antiochus III (223-187 BC) who was contemporary with Ptolemy III who are a major powerhouse in establishing diaspora synagogues.

Hasmoneans where a spiritual group of Jewish zealots who would certainly built a synagogue in their home town if one did not exist when they first arrived. The fact that Antigonus and Josephus (also a zealot) both resided at Cana is powerful literary evidence that pushes the SOD date into the first century BC. Equally important is the fact that Nathanael, the most spiritual of all of Jesus' twelve apostles, lived in Cana in 30 AD. Certainly he would live in a town with a synagogue. The Hasmonean coins, pottery, first century stoneware and plaster from the synagogue excavation all prove there was a synagogue here when Jesus performed the miracle at the wedding feast.
