Hezki Bezalel, a tour guide, researcher, and member of the Binyamin  Tour Guides Forum, has shared details of a remarkable archaeological  discovery in the Binyamin region during recent infrastructure work.                                                   Speaking with Arutz Sheva - Israel National News,  Bezalel described the findings that emerged during rescue excavations  conducted as part of the renewal project for Route 60. While various  interesting features, including stalactite caves, were uncovered along  the route, the most extraordinary discovery lies near the British Police  Junction, at the entrance to the area known as Wadi Harmiyya.                                                   "We've  always known this area holds historical significance with several  overlapping stories," Bezalel said. "But now, an astonishing ancient  water system has been unearthed."                                                   According to Bezalel, a  previously known tunnel—once thought to be a small structure linked to  the nearby British police station—has been revealed to be part of a much  larger and sophisticated water system. So far, excavators have  discovered six water springs, a 200-meter-long channel, and, most  recently, a large wall. This wall may have served as a dam to manage  water flow through the Wadi Harmiyya valley, or possibly as a reservoir  or the foundation of a major fortress.                                                  |
