Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox ancient site 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 Шаблон:Cvt 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.[4]
