What Archaeology Says

The Heliopolis complex was built by the Romans beginning in the 1st century BC on a site sacred to the Phoenician god Baal. The massive limestone foundation stones — including the Trilithon, each weighing ~800 tons — were quarried and moved using sophisticated Roman engineering: levers, cranes, and large labor forces. Modern experimental archaeology has demonstrated plausible techniques.
