Hi mrl1970,

You are right, a very interesting article, I enjoy keeping up with new archeological finds, especially in the Middle East relating to OT history.

As a kid I entertained the idea of becoming an archeologist until of course I found out what it entailed as far as education and funding go, then I went back to wanting to be a baseball player.  ;)

Thanks for posting this.

Peace,

Joe

Excerpt from that interesting article.

Quote

A crescent moon, the symbol of the chief Babylonian god Sin, appears on the top of the altar.

Yes. They got that right. Babylonians worship SIN! Some things never change!

Peace to you
