History: Ancient Mikveh Found Underneath Kotel Plaza

An ancient Jewish ritual bath, or mikveh, dating to the final days of the Second Temple roughly 2,000 years ago has been uncovered beneath the Western Wall Plaza, just meters from the Temple Mount. The discovery offers a rare, intimate glimpse into Jewish life in Jerusalem on the eve of its destruction.
