Abstract
In 1981, a salvage excavation was conducted in Tiberias, on a private plot owned by the Ella Brothers. The excavation, on behalf of the Department of Antiquities and Museums, was directed by R. Sivan and G. Solar. Remains of modern houses were discovered, which included sections of walls and stone paving. Below the modern walls were basalt walls built on top of basalt columns (diam. c. 30 cm), mostly made of drums placed one on top of the other. At the bottom of the walls, the excavation reached the water.
