Abstract
Description
A diagram shows the three levels of the Northern Palace. One was at the summit of the plateau and two were carved into the western face of the mesa. The sign describes the various rooms of the place structure and notes that with three terraces, it was "one of the most daring structures built by King Herod in the county".
