Another well known fact is that there are six surviving descriptions of Herod's
temple in which information on its location can be found. All six preclude this
hill.

Another well known fact is the entire Wailing Wall/Temple Mount can not be
traced back further than the late 19th c. There is no mention of any such thing
from before that time.

Matt the Pratt spouting nonsense as usual. All descriptions of the Jewish
temple place it firmly in the area of the Haram, and the documented history
of the site stretches right back to Roman times and includes Crusaders,
Jewish and Christian pilgrims, and travellers.
