Israel has a long and sordid history, so pardon me if I turn out to be wrong on this, but the Kingdom of Israel, or Samaria, existed from roughly 900-700 BCE. During Warehouse 2, Israel would have been under the control of the Byzantines. Which doesn't necessarily discount what you're saying, Per...Warehouse 13 found an artifact from the Paleolithic era, so time is hardly a factor here.

But that still leaves us the matter of how the tree moved to Warehouse 3. And I would humbly suggest that maybe the best course of action is to consider that perhaps Alexander didn't discover it, didn't have it in the Warehouse, or it got left behind somehow? Warehouse 3 would then have found it, and they were one of the more successful Warehouses if you measure by how many artifacts they collected. And hey, if you want to get cheeky, the Syfy description of Warehouse 3 calls that period of time "bountiful" and "fruitful."
