Abstract
We have discovered six galaxies with spectroscopically confirmed redshifts of 4.84.8. The line fluxes range between 0.2 to 2.5 x 10^-17 ergs cm^-2 s^-1 indicating luminosities of around 10^42-43 ergs s^-1 for Ly-alpha and their high emission line equivalent widths suggest very young ages (-21.
