Summary: | The hypothesis that the present Haram esh-Sharif/Temple Mount was once the Antonia fortress cannot be sustained. It does not conform to what we know of the Antonia from Josephus, and it does not account for the archaeological remains in the western section of the north wall. L'hypothèse selon laquelle l'actuel Haram esh-Sharif/mont du Temple fut jadis la forteresse Antonia est indéfendable. Cette hypothèse ne correspond pas à ce que nous savons par Josèphe de l'Antonia, et elle ne rend pas compte des vestiges archéologiques découverts dans la section ouest du mur nord. |
