Jerusalem stone continues to be used in construction and incorporated in Jewish ceremonial art such as menorahs and seder plates. In 2000, there were 650 stone-cutting enterprises run by Palestinians in the West Bank, producing a varied range of pink, sand, golden, and off-white bricks and tiles.〔(Palestinians' stones cut both ways ) Ilene Prusher, The Christian Science Monitor, January 4, 2000〕 ==Geology== The highlands of Israel and the Palestinian territories are primarily underlain by sedimentary limestone, dolomite and dolomitic limestone. The stone quarried for building purposes, ranging in color from white to pink, yellow and tawny, is known collectively as Jerusalem stone. Soft Senonian limestone is found to the east of Jerusalem, and has long been used as an inexpensive building material.〔Influence of Geological Conditions on the Development of Jerusalem, M. Avnimelech, Bulletin of the American Schools of Oriental Research, No. 181 (Feb., 1966), pp. 24-31〕 Stone of the Cenomanian layers, known in Arabic as ''mizzi ahmar'' and ''mizzi yahudi'', is far more durable than Senonian limestone, but is very hard and was expensive to quarry using pre-modern methods.〔 Turonian layers yield ''mizzi hilu'' or ''helu'' and ''meleke'', the most prized building stones.〔 The thin layered ''mizzi hilu'' is easily quarried and worked. ''Meleke'' is soft and easy to chisel, yet hardens with exposure to the atmosphere and becomes highly durable.〔 It was used for the great public buildings of antiquity, and for the construction of the Islamic period city walls and buildings. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jerusalem stone」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
