Multiple, irrefutable flaws void claims that Judaism's Temple in Jerusalem was located at the present mosque, The Dome of the Rock.

When serious coin collecting emerged about the 14th century in Europe, it was tied to the Renaissance's rediscovery of classical Greek and Roman culture.

For centuries, rare and expensive ancient coins were the heart of European numismatics (known as "the Hobby of Kings" as well as "the King of Hobbies") and a coin's relative beauty was strictly in the eye of the beholder (buyer and seller). In fact, even numismatic books of the 17th and 18th centuries...

The theory of Human evolution was almost forgotten. Is this what you believe in?
