Jerusalem, Wilson’s Arch

A salvage excavation at Wilson’s Arch within the Western Wall tunnels of Jerusalem's Old City uncovered significant archaeological insights, shedding light on the site's historical layers. Conducted between June 2019 and December 2020, this research built upon previous excavations, utilizing stratigraphy, pottery analysis, and radiocarbon dating to reconstruct the area's past. The study was a collaborative effort involving experts from the Israel Antiquities Authority, with support from the Western Wall Heritage Foundation. Key findings include detailed stratigraphic sequences and artifact analysis, contributing to the understanding of Jerusalem’s complex history.
