Example text

This passage is built in the same style as the other IVB structures and adds proof to the existence of a wall around the city. Similar to the Solomonic gate, the structures of this city, too, are the earliest to be built in the Phoenician style (with its typical margin dressing) widely adopted in Solomon's days according to the Bible.

Amiran). There seems to be no doubt that it must be attributed to the Assyrian conquest, when Megiddo became an important military-administrativecenter, in which the two chambered-gatewas built.
