I'm not sure that this is precisely where you would put it, but it does now include the entire area of Mazar’s excavation.  As you know, there is no evidence for the northern border of the city in this area.  Mazar believes that the northern wall is south of the palace she is excavating.  Others think it includes the palace.  My point in drawing the border roughly was to indicate how these excavations are outside the area generally believed to have been walled during the 10th century.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20570989/4024488023697103617/comments/default/7311198003167586939'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20570989/4024488023697103617/comments/default/7311198003167586939'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://blog.bibleplaces.com/2008/08/city-of-david-excavation-report.html?showComment=1219963140000#c7311198003167586939' title=''/><author><name>Todd Bolen</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06156730661243501832</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='06979771300743508634'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://blog.bibleplaces.com/2008/08/city-of-david-excavation-report.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20570989.post-4024488023697103617' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20570989/posts/default/4024488023697103617' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20570989.post-157347654946368718</id><published>2008-08-28T05:15:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2008-08-28T05:15:00.000-05:00</updated><title type='text'>I think the northern border should be along a diag...</title><content type='html'>I think the northern border should be along a diagonal line going from the northeast corner of the red lines, in the direction of the arrowpoint of the Givati parking lot arrow, and stopping a little after it intersects the street.  In any case, the Palace of David is a little north of where you have it.  You can literally see the southern portion of the parking lot from your photo &lt;A HREF="http://blog.bibleplaces.com/2007/04/more-palace-of-david-discovered.html" REL="nofollow"&gt;here&lt;/A&gt;.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20570989/4024488023697103617/comments/default/157347654946368718'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20570989/4024488023697103617/comments/default/157347654946368718'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://blog.bibleplaces.com/2008/08/city-of-david-excavation-report.html?showComment=1219918500000#c157347654946368718' title=''/><author><name>Yitzhak Sapir</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10208312193149945171</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://blog.bibleplaces.com/2008/08/city-of-david-excavation-report.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20570989.post-4024488023697103617' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20570989/posts/default/4024488023697103617' type='text/html'/></entry></feed>
