Hi Anton,
I'm curious about the Anderson book you mentioned further up in the thread. Did it provide any information about the material used for Alexander's Gates?
Also, wikipedia (sorry) tells me that the Gates are mentioned in several ancient and medieval sources such as the Jewish War (75AD), the Antiquities of the Jews (93 or 94 AD), as well as the Alexander Romance, the Travels of Marco Polo, the John de Mandeville manuscripts, and the German medieval legend of the Red Jews (13th -15thC)...
I wonder if there might be traces of anchiton in some versions of those. Does Anderson mention them?
