Skeptics argue that King David is about as historical as King Arthur. They believe there are no records of his existence outside of the Bible. In the last few decades archaelogical excavations in the Holy Land have uncovered physical evidence that supports the existence of King David and his line of Kings.

Is there any legitimate evidence to show that Solomon's Temple (957 BCE - 586 BCE) and Herod's Temple (516 BCE - 70 CE) actually existed? Did they exist in Jerusalem or in another city such as Nablus?

Archaeological evidence has corroborated many of the civilizations and cultures described in the Bible, including the Hittites, Canaanites, Egyptians, Assyrians, Babylonians, Persians, Philistines, Moabites, Edomites, Ammonites, and Syrians. For instance, archaeologists have found that the ancient city of Ramesses, mentioned in the Biblical account of the Exodus, flourished for centuries during the second millennium B.C..

Many archaeological discoveries have validated the existence of four key figures (Jesus, Caiaphas, Pontius Pilate and Herod Antipas) involved in the trial of Jesus documented in the four Gospels.
