Book excerpt: The fame of the ruins at Baalbek in Lebanon once drew many tourists. The Romans eventually built magnificent temples over a massive multi-level platform considered to be one of the only prediluvial sites that survived the flood. Here we find the amazing 1000-plus ton stones as part of the original temple platform. The largest cranes in the world would have difficulty lifting, let alone moving, these massive limestone blocks. These stones and other parts of this important site are described in this handy reference guide.

Book excerpt: At one time, the worldwide fame of the ruins at Baalbek drew huge numbers of tourist crowds. In the present day, a trip to Baalbek is extremely difficult and considerably dangerous. Luckily, the former curator of the site, Michel M. Alouf, made his years of research available in this heavily illustrated work. The massive multi-level platform found at Baalbek, is believed by some scientists to be one of the "only" prediluvial sites that survived the flood. At a much later time, it became very well known to the Romans, who desecrated the site to build their magnificent temples. In fact, the largest Roman temples ever built were not in Rome, but were found at Baalbek. One of the most puzzling aspects of the ruins at Baalbek are the 1,000-plus ton stones which formed part of the original temple platform. A recent visit to the site allowed inspection of these large stones, and of the one at the quarry (pictured on the cover), were new measurements were taken which revealed the largest and most precisely cur stone at the Trilithon may weigh in at over 1,500 tons. The largest modern cranes in the world would have difficulty in lifting, let alone moving, these massive limestone blocks, and yet there they sit. These stones, and many other aspects of this important historical site are described at length in this handy reference guide.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Baalbek In my previous editions of the history of Baal bek, I had drawn my facts from the best authorities then known, but the new light thrown on the subject by the German Mission shows, that, on some points, my information was inexact. Profiting by the discoveries of the German Mission and by those I have made myself, Ihave been able to make many corrections 111 the present work. In the former edition of my book, I inserted two plans, one representing the original state of the temple, one showing their present con dition. These plans were the most exact to be obtained at that time; the German Mission have provided us with more precise ones. Thanks to them, I have been able to give, in this edition, the plans of the temples, before they were touched by either the Byzantines or the Arabs, thus giving a good idea of the grandeur of Roman Architecture at its apogee. I have also added a plan, showing the present ruined state of the temples. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
