You had a link to the discovery of Herod the Great’s tomb in 2007 so I went looking for some additinal info on Google.

There’s an article in Archeology News

And a neat You Tube vid interview with the archeologist and some great views.

Don’t know if you want to post or ping, but I think it’s pretty cool any time you can prove out something like the description of his burial from ancient historians like Josephus.

Thanks! One of the NatGeog DVDs around here has the NG “Herod’s Tomb” program trailer, looks pretty interesting.
