The Finger of Og a huge stone pillar, sometimes called Herod's Pillar, which lies in front of the Russian Compound in Jerusalem.
Its name is a reference to the giant Og, King of Bashan, as described in the Hebrew Bible.
The column measures 12 m (39 ft) long and is thought to have been intended for use in either Herod's Temple,[1][2] or the later Byzantine Nea Church.
[3] Its upper surface is partially dressed and the discovery of a flaw appears to be the reason it was abandoned and left in-situ.
