Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from First Half Century of the Life and Work of the Troy Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church The general-in-chief of the Israelitish forces, and leader of a great national migration, only obeyed a common human impulse when he commanded twelve stones to be taken from the bed of the divided Jordan and piled in Gilgal as a lasting memorial of a signal event in the nation´s history. The monumental instinct is universal. All ages and lands have their rude or labored mementoes of past events and times gone by. The graceful pagodas, rising story above story, a conspicuous feature of the Chinese landscape, are venerable commemoratives. So are the Druidic monoliths of Salisbury plain and the rock-wonders of Luxor, Karnak and Elephanta. Amid the silences of Persepolis and Palmyra; the Sphinxes and pyramids of Egypt; the winged bulls of Nineveh; the ruined arches and temples of Rome and Carthage; the tombs of Athens and Cyprus; successive generations of explorers - Layards, Belzonis, Champollions, Schliemans and Cesnolas pause and inquire, "what mean these stones."
