This blog (by Zeev Barkan) is dedicated to the Star of David, its history, its various meanings and usages in different cultures. It includes thousands of pictures of Star of David, six-pointed stars, hexagrams, Solomon's Seals, Magen Davids and yellow badges,and served as a resource for three books and four art exhibitions.

Photo of Star of David On Mount Zion outside the Old City of Jerusalem is courtesy of Exothermic who published it on Flickr and wrote in the caption:This photo shows the close proximity that three religions reside in Jerusalem. The bottom floor is David’s Tomb, a Jewish holy site; the top floor is the Cenacle or the Upper Room, a Christian holy site; and on top of all this is a Muslim minaret.
