Megiddo City Gates

by Mackenzie Landi

Part of the ruins of a large temple complex can be seen in addition to the Megiddo City Gates. Steps on the eastern side allowed the priest to climb onto the altar for sacrifices or other rituals. Though it is impossible to know exactly what happened here, the Bible records that Canaanite worship included the sacrifice of animals, as well as children during certain periods.
