He had uncovered a 12-ft.-high tunnel that had been sealed since Biblical times. At its other end, 100 ft. away, Yadin saw water sparkling in the torchlights. Instead of depending on springs, Ahab's engineers had dug deep to tap the natural ground water reservoir. The stonework shaft's 10-ft-wide stairways sloped gently down to the tunnel mouth and were roomy enough, Yadin believes...
