Moslem Digs Reveal First Temple

Some of you may have heard a recent uproar in Israel from Zionists in regards to supposed unauthorized digging in Israel on top of the Temple Mount. The Moslem Waqf dug trenches in order to replace power lines to the al Aqsa mosque. In the process they unexpectedly for the first time in modern history uncovered relics from the First Temple.

These included pottery and animal bones that dated back to 600-800 BCE. These artifacts were only found by chance when Israel archeologists were brought in to oversee the digging of these trenches. Already these finds are helping archeologists in studying the exact dimensions and location of Solomon’s Temple for the first time.
