The Holiest Toilet in the World

Discovery of an ancient toilet in the City of David affirms the ancient siege of Jerusalem.  Confirmation of the Biblical account of the siege is made by examination of the evidence of material discovered beneath a 2,500 year old toilet. 

Ze’ev Orenstein, director of International Affairs of the City of David, relates the 1970’s discovery and scientific examination of evidence found beneath an ancient toilet.
