Caption: Ancient coins on displayed at an excavation site of an ancient Jewish Mikve, or ritual bath, underneath the Western Wall in Jerusalem's Old City. Israeli archaeologists said they found ancient coins in the ancient bath which changed beliefs regarding the origins of Jerusalem's Western Wall. For centuries, many thought the wall was built by King Herod but archaeologists said they had found coins minted 20 years after King Herod's death in 4 B.C., showing the structure was completed by his successors.
