Evidence that Ancient People Were Very Intelligent (Part 1)

Somehow, during the construction of Solomon's Temple, the ancient people were able to move limestone blocks that weighed between 800,000 - 2,000,000 pounds a distance of more than one mile. We do not have the technology today to perform this feat, nor do we know how they accomplished this amazing task.

"During the last few years Jewish archaeologists have made fascinating discoveries on and beneath the Temple Mount that pinpoint the original site of Solomon's Temple...

When Jewish archaeologist excavated the area, they exposed massive foundation stones from the Second Temple and some deep foundation blocks that may have existed since the First Temple. Several of the carved limestone blocks measure forty-six by twenty feet by ten feet. They weigh from four hundred to one thousand tons each and fit so closely together that you cannot place a razor blade between them (In comparison, the largest stones used in the Great Pyramid seldom exceed fifty tons.) We know of no modern technology using cranes or helicopters that could transport such massive blocks of stone over one mile from the quarry to the Temple Mount. 1
