Solomon's Temple
Solomon's Temple was believed to be the first temple of the ancient religion of the biblical Israelites, originally constructed by King Solomon on the hill called Moriah in Jerusalem. It was designed to hold the Ark of the Covenant and a Piece of Eden.
Assassin's Creed
Altair, Malik and Kadar were sent to the temple to secure the Piece of Eden during the start of the game. Upon arrival, they found Robert de Sable and his men were already there to retrieve the artifact for themselves. Altaïr imprudently attacked de Sable, who deflect the charge and delivered a cryptic warning to the brash assassin. He then hurled Altaïr through a support beam, cutting him off from the chamber and his companions. Altaïr believed the mission failed and retreated to Masyaf to report the events to Al Mualim, leaving Malik and Kadar for dead. Malik however did not perish, and managed to retrieve and deliver the Piece of Eden to his master, losing his left arm and his brother in the process.
