Now it is good for nothing, but to cumber the ground, and furnish fuel for Tophet. |
|
Tophet was a huge hollow idol in which the Canaanites would set a blazing fire. |
|
He had given a five-acre preserve on Tophet Road to the Land Trust in 1997, with his daughter, Anne, in memory of his wife, Jean. |
|
Mr. Widmark has been an active member of the trust, working to preserve open space and views on the Tophet Road hilltop. |
|
The sculptural shops are especially active in the realization of the steles of the Tophet, in which religious symbols and figures of divinity are represented. |
