Did you see this?
A 2000-year-old building was discovered near the Western Wall in Jerusalem!
Wow!
The article states: "With a luxurious lobby, parts of which the Israeli Antiquities Authority has already revealed, the edifice includes a sophisticated fountain and was likely used for banquets and other gatherings of the local elite or to receive foreign dignitaries within walking distance of the Temple.
'It is a truly magnificent building, one of the most splendid public buildings we know of dating from the Second Temple period' said Shlomit Weksler-Bdolah, an archeologist at the IAA."
I love this kind of stuff, and I cannot wait to (I hope to!) see this one day!
