Did they really find King Herod's tomb? Israeli archaeologist today claim to have located the possible location of the burial place on a flattened hilltop in the Desert south of Jerusalem.
On the site they have been exploring since the 1970s, where the monarch had built a palace.
They found a sarcophagus,which we all remember from "Night at the Museum" , although there were no bones in the container it's location and ornate appearance indicated it is indeed Herod's. Further research is needed on the ruins and it's inscription for full verification.
