  1. hm....thats interesting...i never knew that.....ive been there and never heard anything about it


  2. Archeologist have said the inscriptions on the base rocks prove the age to David's time.

  3. Can't really tell

    But top right word Yehuda

    Last line one word Halevi or Levi

    I'll check around

    YOU MUST REMEMBER THAT IN 1967 THAT WAS GROUND LEVEL

    OK

    It says

    Yehoda Dov Ben Yosef Yahkov Halevi (best I can tell)

    יהודה דוב בן  Ã—™×•×¡×£ יעקוב הלוי

    Or Yehuda ezov Ben Yosef Yahkov Halevi

    Here is a site explaining these writings.

    Dubble click the photo

  4. Judging by the shape of letters that I can see, the inscriptions is quite late - centuries after the destruction of the Temple.
