Tomb found

An Israeli archaeologist says he has found the tomb of King Herod, the ruler of Judea while it was under Roman administration in the first century BC.

After a search of more than 30 years, Ehud Netzer of the Hebrew University says he has located the tomb at Herodium, a site south of Jerusalem.



It would certainly be intresting to see whats to be found inside the tomb apart from his bones.

Here is a link to the Yahoo news article on the topic. It gives some more details about the sarcophagus and the decorations in the tomb itself.

This is a teriffic find! What gets me interested is that while this is obviously Herrod's tomb, there is no remains in the sarcophagus. The first thought that came to my mind is tomb robbers, but they're usually more interested in the jewelry and goods rather than the body. So what happened to ol' Herrod?
