Herodian Stones

Herodian Stones

View of the northwestern wall of the Cave of Machpelah where Herodian stones are clearly visible.

Note the individual stones are finely hewn—not rough, but very smooth.  Note the delicate “margins” on each of the stones and the finely chiseled “bosses” (bosses are large raised central areas).
