Title
Jerusalem: City of David - the Stepped Structure
Description
The 50-foot-high stepped structure on the right in this photo was probably built in the pre-Davidic Jebusite period (i.e., prior to the 10th century BCE). The square-cornered tower immediately beyond the stepped structure was part of the east wall of the city in the Second Temple period and the walls and steps in the lower left of the photo belong to a house from the 8th or 7th centuries BCE.
