Between the Mediterranean Sea and the northern edge of the Dead Sea, Jerusalem is one of the oldest cities in the world. Settled in the 4th millennium BCE, during it's long history, Jerusalem has been destroyed twice, besieged 23 times, attacked 52 times and captured and recaptured 44 times. One element that has remained constant throughout this time however, is it's building material...Jerusalem Limestone. Since ancient times, this stone has been quarried for all manners of building purposes and can be seen everywhere in Jerusalem. The colors, varied from grays and whites to ochers, reds and rose, this is a stone with undeniable strength, beauty and history.
