Is this the Darius of Daniel whose existence has been questioned by some?Probably. THAT alone would explain the bulldozing. There are some, for their own creepy reasons, want the Scriptures and its history to be totally disproved.

I know there is a Persian king named Darius in the book of Ezra. The NIV study bible introduction dates the writings of Ezra to about 440BC which seems to be in this time frame.
But then again I'm no biblical/archeological scholar like that James Cameron is! ;)
