Brien returned to the
Baalbek complex. The wiki page says it's history goes back at least 11,000 years. The
Trilithon stones are estimated to be anywhere from 750-1,000 tons each. That 1.5 to 2.0 million lbs. or 680,838 to 907,185 kilos. The site is 124 mi. or 200 km. from that site in Lebanon to the Temple of
Bel in Syria.

While "Baal" and "Bel" are essentially the same deity, with "Baal" being the Northwest Semitic term and "Bel" the East Semitic equivalent, the key difference is that "Baal" is more commonly associated with the Canaanite god of fertility and storms, while "Bel" is often used to refer to the Babylonian god Marduk, where "Bel" is essentially a title meaning "lord" in that context; both names essentially translate to "lord" in their respective languages.

Hi Inversion. Good vid.
First, the highlight text about “god of fertility and storms”. Had me wondering, for a second, but it would have made sense back then.
My take on history, R&P by victors of the many armed conflicts, must have been mass fertilization events, stormy. ..Though Michener iirc in his book Poland described the Mongol victors’ actions as deadly.
About the vid, those rock-works are nuts. I’m half buzzed about the sciency aspect, and half perplexed about the motivation.
Maybe it was just a normal thing, and easy for them, so not an obsession like the latter copycats seem to display.
I wonder what the heck else they were up to, in those times.
