The rite of laying a cornerstone is an important cultural component of eastern architecture and metaphorically in sacred architecture generally. There are six references to cornerstones in both the Old and New Testaments.Some cornerstones include time capsules from, or engravings commemorating the time a particular building was built."@en }
