Temple Mount Sifting Project
So there's this really cool place called the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. A long, long time ago (like thousands of years ago), important people used to go there to pray and do religious things.
But one day, big bad guys came and destroyed the Temple that was there. And when they did that, a lot of important things got buried underground.
Now, some really smart people decided they wanted to find those important things again. So, they got a bunch of dirt from the Temple Mount and sifted through it very carefully.
They found lots of cool stuff like old coins, pottery, and even small little pieces of jewelry. They are doing this because they want to learn more about the history of the Temple Mount and the people who used to go there.
