Explanation: During the Siege of Masada in the First Roman-Jewish War, the Iudean rebels holed up in the mountain fortress of Masada, which looked pretty fucking impenetrable. Unfortunately for the Iudean rebels, the Romans were infamously stubborn, and so decided to just BUILD a ramp so massive and sturdy that you can still see the remains to this day
Going through all these old ones :) Is this meant to be Masada?
Yep! I usually try to include an explanation in the comments!
Aaah nicee thought so! I ran up there over a decade ago at 4am in the morning. Hah. It’s actually a lot bigger than pictured here, it took me a solid 20mins to sprint up. Fond memories :)
