JERUSALEM (AP) -- Remnants of a biblical-era staircase jut from the landscaped lawn at the base of Jerusalem's Old City wall. Today, the steps go nowhere.

But nearly 2,000 years ago, they may have led to the paved platform where Jesus was tried and sentenced to death by Pontius Pilate, the Roman ruler of the city, says Shimon Gibson, a Jerusalem archaeologist.

Gibson's theory, based on a new interpretation of 1970s archaeological finds, opens yet another chapter in the debate over which path Jesus took to his crucifixion.
