Legion of 10,000 would not fit in the pictured fortress
All references to a Roman Legion put the number at about 10,000 persons, including support staff. But 10,000 would not fit in the rediculously small fortres pictured in the model created by contemporary Jews in Jerusalem, as seen in the photograph. Many ancient writings say the entire traditional "temple mount" was the true Fort Antonia, that was described as being the size of a city.

The true temple mount location was in the north end of the City of David, about 300 yards south of the current walls of the traditional temple mount. There are a number of witnesses to this in various writings. In fact, relics from the Solomon temple have been found in the City of David, in the ruins of destruction by the Babylonians. Also, the temple compound had the Gihon Spring flowing up into it, which is also well south of the existing traditional temple mount.
