Summary

"In 2005, a group of construction workers in Jerusalem made an incredible discovery. Underneath the parking lot they were digging up lay an ancient city that was built in the tenth century! Three years later, gold coins from an even earlier century were found at the site. The city of Jerusalem is like a layer cake of history--more than five thousand years of complicated history--all of which author Ellen Morgan explains clearly and objectively in this illustrated book"--, Provided by publisher
