(narrator) kan bahlam built three major temples-- the temple of the oss, the temple of the sun, and the temple of the foliated cross-- dedicated in 692 to palenque's patron deities. e palace was expanded further during the reign of kan bahlam's younger brother, k'an hoy chitam in the first years of the eighth century. he added new wings and a public facade facing the vast plain that stretches toward the gulf of mexico. the innovative engineering featured curving ogival arches that reduced the weight of the roof. clay figurines from other ancient maya sites give a sense of the king's retinue that once populated the palace. priests and nobles, singers and entertainers, even messengers and servants. dwarves and hunchbacks were thought to herald special powers of benefit to the ruler. paintings on vases and cups portray the king gazing at himself in a mirror held by a dwarf. mirrors we thought to have magiprer and were used to divine the future. those vases, and the painted cups used to serve a chili-laden chocolate drink enjoyed by the maya elite, offer glimpses of life at the maya court.

they thought people's temple was great. they wanted my parents to join, they wanted me to join, and to be honest, it was a very attractive situation. they had a number of programs for mentally retarded children, for elderly people, they had nursing homes. it was obvious that they were committed to offering programs to help people in need. and yet there was just something about jim jones that i didn't care for, and i can't really explain it other than i guess i smelled a rat. but i was never really coerced. i mean, it was much more soft sell. "we're doing great things. don't you want to be part of what we're doing?" that was really the pitch. >> the suicide that occurred on that tragic night is terribly apocalyptic. do we actually know what happened that night? >> the people in people's temple had been rehearsing suicide for several years as a loyalty test. jim jones would give out kool-aid or punch, everyone would drink it, they'd pretend to fall down dead, and then he'd say, "congratulations. you passed the test. i appreci

going into the temple, the temple gate is closed for the night and the temple wall is too high for me to climb over. i have to look for away inside, okay. what is he doing but to leaning against the wall. it must have been a gardener that left this. okay. i use this. i found many snow herrings. they were all sleeping. each of them standing on one skinny leg. so, i will capture them. wait. wait. wait. i know. snow herrings are very expert so take your time to watch them. so, watching them. they're sleeping. [snoring] i don't need to use my wonderful idea. i won't have to call out to them at all. i just go. [snickering quietly] they're still sleeping. how can i get it done. i should have brought a big bag or something like that. any way i just put his head - and then then stash him in my kimono. i can't get in front of them. easy. this is a big hour. my next victim.

we do gain some insight into the importance of the temple to madison. when madison was remodeling the house at about the same time, we have a letter from his builder, james densemore, and densemore proposes putting window in one wall of madison's new library so that madison will be able to see the temple. so we do know, and madison agreed with ,i it's part of the house today, so that does tell us that madison viewed this as a very special element of his lands -- of the landscape around his home. you know, the ancient models of temples are where the greek and roman gods were housed and worshipped, but that's not the reference that madison was making. he was really recalling antiquity as a source of philosophy from aristotle to cisero and to how the real purpose of life, the purpose of government and how the people can start governing themselves through democracy and republican forms of government. for him it was the ideas of antiquity, not the religion, that was the motivating force. because he really built a lot of his thinking about the american consti

so, that he placed the temple on top of his ice house. usually one of the least attractive structures around the home of a plantation in virginia, but -- so he has hidden it and disguised it in the utilitarian ice house this very attractive temple. but underneath its floor is a pit 20 feet deep and in the wintertime his slaves would cut ice from the pond down the hill, cart it up the slope, and pack it into the ice house with straw and sawdust so it would stay frozen well into the summer, providing cooling ice for drinks, ice for dolley madison's favorite dessert ice cream and for the enjoyment of his guests and his family throughout the hot summer months. it really changed very little since his time. later owners did replace the wood floor with a concrete slab, but our investigation showed that the brick ice house below is intact and unchanged. these are the original columns. the roof has been replaced, of course. you're looking at it as it was envisioned by james madison. there are several drawings from madison's lifetime that show this

today we remember the slaves who built this temple of temple of liberty, many of them never saw freedom themselves as we know. the same year the statue freedom was placed atop the dome of the capitol, the emancipation proclamation was signed. that proclamation was not an end of slavery in america. nor was it the end of discrimination and injustice in this land. but it was the beginning of the end of an evil institution and of a dark chapter of this nation's history. its people founded on liberty and justice for all deny that liberty and justice to so many for so long. but the memory of that grievous wrong is also a reminder that change is possible and that together we can continue to build a more perfect union. the fight for change could have no finer leader than our first speaker. john lewis. the general congressman from georgia wasn't alone as he fought for and won equal rights for americans. hundreds of thousands of men and women were beside him, ahead of him and behind him as he marched on washington in 1963. and 600 freedom-loving americans marched by his side from selma toward mon

a temple god must have taken my ladder away. the man started pacing back and forth wondering how to get down. so, the sunlight made one of the birds wake up. bird:i can't breathe. so i must be catching a bad cold. i drank too much, saki rice wine last night. was a little tipsy. i don't remember. any way. think can't move. someone is leaning on me so who is it. my cousin. my brother. we've been got by a hunter. hey! my cousin, wake up. no. not a good morning. we've been caught by a hunter. pass the word but be quiet okay. okay. wake up, wake up, wake up. wake up. wake up. wake up. wake up. wake up. wake up. hey! did you wake up? we've been caught by a hunter. right. i got a good plan. just do what i say. at the count of three, you flap your wings as hard as you can. right? 1, 2, 3 - flapping! i can't move. [help me screaming] very good. whoa. i'm going high. very good. wow. what is that. the lake. not the lake. big river. wow. what? many bridges. the bridge is very old. so, don't go plenty more all right. so. this is a real birds

and that -- that slaves would build this temple of freedom. but this stone is not only a memorial to that tragedy and sin, it is also a tribute to our progress as a nation and a people. to our ongoing pursuit of a more perfect union. to an unending search for liberty and justice for all. as frederick douglass, a marylander and former slave said, the life of a nation is secure only when the nation is honest, truthful and virtuous. with our ceremony today we continue our work to restore honesty, truth and virtue to our capitol and to our history. we reaffirm the promise that no american will be left out of america's story. we pledge to keep working so that all who visit the u.s. capitol recognize the contributions of those who came before, built this capitol, and received the honor that is due them. thank you. [ applause ] >> let me also begin by thanking the slave labor task force. without it, we wouldn't have had this marker at all. and most of us would not have known the full story of our capitol. and as congressman lewis rightly put it on an

and here, the discussion, the disagreement, the complexity - what caused the temple to be destroyed? and here we have this talmudic passage about vain hatred, and again, it says much about human relationships. but i want to take you to one last place in israel that relates to this, which is the western wall of that very temple, the supporting wall - all that's been left - and as kind of the dialogue, the ongoing dialogue. you may have heard it described as the wailing wall - well, it's not pejorative, as you will soon see, because i went up before this wall and they miked me, and i had some trepidation about whether this was an appropriate thing to do. and also, when i got up to that wall, we talk about numinous experience - whoa! i went up there and was not thinking anything about teleclasses or anything else; i was in awe of the power when you stand before that wall. in any event, you can in fact hear devout hasidic jews praying with the characteristic bobbing action, and what are they doing? they're reciting some of the great ancient mythic drams that may come out of the psalms or

so chaplain evans decided let us build a temple of virtue. in the middle of the ep campment the soldiers went to work to build a temple of virtue, a gathering place where the men might come on sunday for religious services and where during the week the administrative operation of the army took place. but clearly, all of this make busy work was not doing much for morale, and washington remained deeply concerned about the murmerrings that he heard in the army. in philadelphia, the congress decided, as certain members of the congress decided, to take action. pressed now, fearing that peace was coming, they decided to make their move. governor morris wrote to his good friend, general henry knox. a man from boston, the book seller from boston. knox had been with washington since the very first day of the war. he was washington's closest friend in the field. morris wrote to henry knox. he addressed his letter, my dear friend. he suggested that if knox would agree that general knox might lead the army to press the states. he went on to say, to his f

he erects no temples or stelae. but archaeologists imagine that behind the scenes the royal family is busy trying to figure out how to restore their lost prestige. they settle on an imaginative scheme -- a media campaign and a grand building project. the building is a pyramid with a magnificent stairway. the steps are inscribed with hieroglyphics, 1,300 in all, making this the longest carved text in the new world. when earlier expeditions came to copan, they found the hieroglyphic stairway fallen into a jumble. one expedition rebuilt the stairway, but their effort resulted in an assembly of hieroglyphs that were out of sequence and made no sense. artist barbara fash has been drawing each glyph on the stairway in an effort to reassemble them in correct order. fash: we've been doing this now for over the past 10 years, recording what's left of the hieroglyphic stairway. as you can see, it's deteriorating very rapidly, and we're losing very important information. what we're hoping to do is be able to put it in order, a

when a later maya king ritually buried this temple in order to build his own temple pyramid on top of it, he broke off this upper portion of the stela, and wedged it between these two columns in the front part of the temple. the inscription itself tells us of a very important date early in copan's history. the date in the maya calendar reads 9 baktuns, zero katuns, zero tuns, zero huinals and zero kins. it corresponds to the year a.d. 435, making this the earliest known inscription from copan. keach: some archaeologists estimate that by 435 the population of the valley had grown to include between 2,000 and 4,000 people. that size suggests copan was then a chiefdom. the name of the ruler who actually commemorated this stela appears up here on the side of the monument. keach: although archaeologists can't yet read his name, he describes himself here as having an eye like the sun. later kings would use the same description for themselves. in the next glyph, he says that his father was the man named in a third glyph -- the founder of the dynasty. this is the earliest evidence that copan

this vision became material in objects and images found in the tombs and temples as a way of pre-ordaining a central id: after perilous and carefully prescribed journey through the night, the king would become one with the sun god re. the king becomes associated with re in particular because of the idea that the sun is born every day out of the womb of the sky, and then comes into the world and goes into the body of the sky at night. and the king in his cycle, in his daily comings and goings, is seen to be like the sun. (narrator) the idea that the pharaoh would be reborn as the sun god re is described in paintings and hieroglyphs in countless royal tombs. it runs like a spine through the theology and philosophy of egypt for more than two thousand years. a clear development begins in the old kingdom in the third millennium before christ. there, at the time of the pyramids, the beyond was located in the sky-- the celestial beyond was always the royal beyond wch the kin wanted to rise. arrator) e vision of a cestiaheaven continueinto the new kingdoera and was depicted in the tomb of ramses t

today, the notre dame cathedral marks the place where a roman temple once stood.he city's first bishop, st. denis, holds his head in his hands. when christianity began making converts here, the pagan romans beheaded him. but according to legend, denis just picked up his head and kept on going. inspired by this miracle, christianity flourished, and the temple was replaced by a church. imagine the faith of the people who built this, breaking ground in 1163 on a building which wouldn't be finished for 200 years. gothic architects incorporated the latest technology, flying buttresses, to support the heavy rooftop. its ghoulish gargoyles multitask. they serve as fancy rain spouts and scare away the evil spirits. the church is dedicated to "our lady," or notre dame. mary cradles the baby jesus. the rose window provides a majestic halo. the virgin mary was highly revered throughout the middle ages. the faithful petitioned her in times of trouble for both comfort and, through her intervention, god's mercy. as worshippers headed for mass, they'd walk under a relief of judg
