ARCHAEOLOGICAL clues predating the birth of Jesus Christ can "pinpoint the exact location" where the Ark of the Covenant once stood, a scripture expert has claimed.
The Ark of the Covenant, also known as the Ark of the Testament, is believed to have held the 10 Commandments God gave to Moses in Exodus. The ornate chest with two cherubim atop was treated with the utmost reverence by the Israelites and was interned in Solomon's Temple on Jerusalem's Temple Mount. According to the Biblical account, the Ark with its two stone tablets was held in a special chamber within the temple, known as the Holy Holies.
In Jewish tradition, this inner sanctuary of Solomon's Temple was accessed once a year by the High Priest on Yom Kippur to make sacrificial offerings to God.
But the Holy of Holies, Solomon's Temple and the Ark of the Covenant are no longer here, due in no small part to the numerous invasions Jerusalem has suffered throughout its history.
Solomon's Temple, or the First Temple, is believed to have been destroyed in the year 587 BC during a siege by Babylon's king Nebuchadnezzar II.
The rebuilt Second Temple was then toppled by the Romans in the year 70 AD in retaliation for a Jewish revolt.

You are correct.

Search Google or Youtube for the Copper Scroll. It is one of the Dead Sea scrolls but this one details where First Temple treasures are buried. Two of the five who wrote it include two boys who went on to become Old Testament prophets. Jim Barfield, an arson investigator, applied his investigative skills to deciphering the scroll directions. He presented his findings to the Israel Antiquities Authority and they came to believe he was right. Very sophisticated metal detectors were employed at several key sites at Qumran and found huge returns for non-ferrous metals. Put the possibility of this treasure together with Israeli annexation of the Jordan Valley and you will create a clamor to unearth it and build the third temple.
I bet a good portion of the stuff was recordings of Russian Moylina TV satellite downloads and subsequent efforts to discover what data lay between frames
