The stepped street, as it is known from academic works,[1] or the Jerusalem pilgrim road as it has been dubbed by the Ir David Foundation,[2] is the early Roman period street connecting the Temple Mount from its southwestern corner, to Jerusalem's southern gates of the time via the Pool of Siloam.[1] The stepped street was built at the earliest during the 30s CE, with the latest coin found under the pavement dating to 30–31 CE, during the governorship of Pontius Pilate[1] of New Testament fame.
