This article had a (dead) link to jpost, about the to excavations, I found the another (working) jpost link:

Ancient Jewish-Christian settlement found in Mishmar David, 3/12/2006 Jerusalem Post.

Now, the same press statement is in full(?) on the www.mfa.gov.il site...the same date, but different headline:

Evidence of ancient settlement uncovered in IAA excavations at Mishmar David, 3 Dec 2006

And then we have this version, from antiquities.org.il:

The President's visit to the IAA's Mishmar David Excavation (December 3, 2006)

Fascinatingly; the versions are a bit different; the two last ones do not mention anything about Jewish structures. Cheers, Huldra (talk) 21:51, 26 April 2010 (UTC)Reply

Considering the way archaeology is reported in Israeli newspapers, they are pretty consistent. Note how the archaeologist says in direct quotation in JP that the population was Christian, thus disproving the headline. Zero^talk 09:37, 27 April 2010 (UTC)Reply
