Tour of King David’s Jerusalem

Pool of Siloam at City of David in Jerusalem

This is an exciting ongoing excavation, and to date we have discovered the palace of David and the kings of Judah, royal seals of the ministers to King Zedekiah at the time of Jeremiah, Warren’s shaft through which David’s army conquered Jerusalem, Canaanite fortified spring house from Abraham’s day built to protect the Gihon springs during time of siege, King Hezekiah’s water tunnel, Pool of Siloam where Jesus healed the blind man, and subterranean passages.
