The Fortification System in the Northwestern Part of Jerusalem from the Early Islamic Period to the Ottoman Period (Hebrew, pp.105–130; English summary, pp. 73*–75*)
Along the exterior of the wall in Jerusalem, near the New Gate, several defense elements were unearthed beneath the Ottoman wall, including stone courses, a rock-cut moat and towers. These findings make it possible to suggest a new reconstruction of the development of the fortification system of the city from the Roman–Byzantine periods tothe Earlty Islamic, Medieval and Ottoman periods.
