Summary
edit- English: Istanbul - Archaeological Museum. Inscription Found in the Siloam Aqueduct. Picture by: Giovanni Dall'Orto, May 28 2006.
The inscription contains 6 lines, of which the first is damaged. The words are separated by dots. Only the word zada on the third line is of doubtful translation - perhaps a crack or a weak part.
The passage reads:
- [] the tunnel [ ] and this is the story of the tunnel while [ ]
- the axes were against each other and while three cubits were left to cut? [ ] the voice of a man [ ]
- called to his counterpart, [for] there was ZADA in the rock, on the right [ ] and on the day of the
- tunnel (being finished) the stonecutters struck each man towards his counterpart, ax against ax and flowed
- water from the source to the pool for 1200 cubits. and 100?
- cubits was the height over the head of the stonecutters [ ]
The inscription hence records the construction of the tunnel.
