	Gods Graves Glyphs	Thanks decimon and wildbill! Archaeologists in Jordan have unearthed a 3,000-year-old Iron Age temple... The head of the Jordanian Antiquities Department, Ziad al-Saad, said the sanctuary dates to the eighth century B.C.... "Today we have the material evidence, the archaeological proof of the level of advancement of technology and civilization at that period of time," he said. The Moabites, whose kingdom ran along present-day Jordan's mountainous eastern shore of the Dead Sea, were closely related to the Israelites, although the two were in frequent conflict. The Babylonians eventually conquered the Moabites in 582 B.C. The Moabites were some desert trash that no one would have heard of were it not for the Old Testament -- and notice that neither the OT nor the Kingdom of David (which is mentioned on the Moabite Stone) is mentioned here? To all -- please ping me to other topics which are appropriate for the GGG list. GGG managers are SunkenCiv, StayAt HomeMother, and Ernest_at_the_Beach
