Someone needs Ed Leedskalnin (Coral Castle) to put that in its correct place.

that's a great photo.

I attended a lecture by Dr James Charlesworth of Princeton Theological Seminary. During the lecture on the Dead Sea Scrolls he noted the largest stone ever quaried was in the Temple in Jerusalem. I sent him a photocopy of the Haliburton description and he acknowledged the Balbeck stone was larger.

For the record, it is said to be 68 feet long, 14 feet wide and 14 feet tall. Richard Halliburton (one of my favorite authors) says it is over 1700 years old so dates from historic times.

It is on my list of places to go but like Isfahan, doubt if I will ever make it.
