>>>That theory just doesn’t make any sense, as he is using Josephus as a primary source, but then ignoring Josephus’ description of the relative areas of the Temple and Fort Antonia.<<<
Three different websites disagree with you, and all seem pretty credible. Are you sure you are interpreting correctly?
No matter. I see you are not going to let go of this, and I am really not interested. Jesus said no stone would be left on another in the temple complex, and that is exactly what happened in 70 AD.
Now if you can prove what you believe, without a shadow of a doubt, then I might be interested. But there is no way you can prove it.

“Three different websites disagree with you, and all seem pretty credible. Are you sure you are interpreting correctly?”
Those three websites are all based on the theory of one man, Ernest Martin, who is in the minority among scholars with his theory.
“Now if you can prove what you believe, without a shadow of a doubt, then I might be interested. But there is no way you can prove it.”
Well, there’s no point in discussing anything with you, if that is your attitude. You’ll just go on believing what you want and dismissing any evidence that contradicts it, just as you dismissed the high school-level math that debunks Martin’s Temple Mount theory.
