Kathleen Kenyon Not One Stone Upon Another "The city of Herod the Great and Herod Agrippa was brutally destroyed and devastated after the capture of Jerusalem by Titus in A.D. 70, and its ruins still further overturned by the Hadrianic building operations of the second century A.D. Our excavations have shown that with the exception of a few of the public buildings, quite literally scarcely one stone stands on another." Kathleen Kenyon, "Digging Up Jerusalem" (London: Ernest Benn, 1974) pp. 236-37. Webmaster: rusty@bible-history.com
