docyabut2 Posted May 10, 2013 #1 Share Posted May 10, 2013 A huge quarry, along with tools and a key, used by workers some 2,000 years ago have been discovered during an excavation in Jerusalem prior to the paving of a highway, the Israel Antiquities Authorities (IAA) announced. The first-century quarry, which fits into the Second Temple Period (538 B.C. to A.D. 70), would've held the huge stones used in the construction of the city's ancient buildings, the researchers noted Read more: http://www.foxnews.com/science/2013/05/09/jerusalem-ancient-city-quarries-reveals-city-building-rocks/?intcmp=features#ixzz2SsLciGcI 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHaYap Posted May 10, 2013 #2 Share Posted May 10, 2013 In fact, researchers discovered a first-century road adjacent to the quarry that may have been used for stone transport. The scientists aren't certain how exactly the giant stones would've been moved along this road. They suspect oxen and wooden rollers would've done the trick, but some historical records note giant wood-lifting devices were around at the time and may have been used.

If the quarry was used to build Cyrus' second temple... maybe they used this ;-) This interesting symbol was used by the ancient Aryan Persians to represent their one invisible god.. http://cache2.allpostersimages.com/p/LRG/21/2148/831CD00Z/posters/ashworth-richard-ahura-mazda-supreme-god-in-zoroastrianism-persepolis-unesco-world-heritage-site-iran.jpg The two rings remind me of Ezekiel's "wheel within a wheel" UFO... that transported God's Ark of the Covenant from the first temple before Babylon conquered Jerusalem and Edom destroyed the temple.
