Plate 47–48 · Jerusalem under David, c. 1000 B.C.
Each period's walls (in red) are drawn over the plan of the city as it was in 1915, so the quarters, streets and buildings shown are those of 1915, not of the period. The plan is from Sir Charles Wilson's Ordnance Survey of Jerusalem (1864–65), brought up to date for the atlas.
c. 1055–1011 B.C. · c. 1000 B.C. · 2 Samuel 5 – 1 Kings 2, 1 Chronicles 11–29
