The Tower of David?🗼 The King David Hotel?🛎️ David’s Citadel?🏨
A lot of places have been named after the famous biblical king. But guess who never set foot in any of those places... King David!👑
In memory of Dr. Eilat Mazar z”l, we can’t forget to include King David’s Palace as one of her greatest finds.
Some 40 years after Kathleen Kenyon found the famous Jerusalem proto-Aeolic capital, archaeologist Dr. Eilat Mazar z”l began digging in the City of David.⚒️
Eilat Mazar z”l found a massive iron age structure that she supposed were the foundations of a large palace from the 10th century BCE, the same period as King David.
A great debate broke out between researchers about what these remnants mean.
