This is a diagram for the Southern location. Solomon's Temple area ( in green) and the Herodian extended courts (in blue). Josephus,wrote that Herod's Temple complex was a furlong in length and width, 600 x 600 feet. Both Herod Solomon's Temple shared the same east wall .Herod merely extended Solomon’s east wall to the north and to the south. The Temple house, Priest's court, and Women's court were rebuilt by Herod the Great pre-first century. Later, as Herod's decedents continued his work by extended the outer courts during the first century, then parts of Solomon's old walls were most likely removed.
