Plautus Posted October 15, 2005 Report Share Posted October 15, 2005 Hey, I have a question. I might be traveling to Jerusalem for the first time this December. I'll have a limited time. What are the cool must see sights for Roman scholars? I've been told Masada is an hour's drive from the city. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeke Posted October 16, 2005 Report Share Posted October 16, 2005 There was once a temple of Venus in Jerusalem I doubt it still exists, but you may want to check it out. Zeke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ursus Posted October 17, 2005 Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 I also hear there used to be a big Jewish temple there from which the Romans nonetheless made sacrifices to Jupiter. Not there anymore ...wonder what happened to it ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
