The discovery revealed three large rooms used as shrines, along with artefacts, including tools, pottery and objects, such as alters associated with worship.
The three shrines are said to be a part of a larger building complex, and the artefacts found include five standing stones, two basalt altars, two pottery libation vessels and two portable shrines, one made of pottery, the other of stone.
The shrines reflect an architectural style dating back as early as King David.

@G Din,, Its a very complicated and i think some Hindu or Budhist can not understand the problem of palestine its a reliegous problem between three Abrahamic faiths and its need deep study and its allways ruled by powerfull and will be like that....
@khan: So, what is there to think? Certainly, you don't contend that who lost the land yesterday has a better claim to it than whose land it was in the first place for ages before yesterday. In any case, what have aborigines and Red Indians to do with the Middle East? Muddled thinking, I am sorry to say!
@G. Din:
They are claiming the land which they lost a thousand year ago, aboginies and the red indians lost their land a few hundred years ago!! think??
And, there are still some who think Jews are plants in an alien land by Europeans and Americans and don't belong in Jerusalem! Think!
