Note that articles on Wikipedia must be written from a
neutral point of view and must be
verifiable in published third-party sources; consider whether, copyright issues aside, your text is appropriate for inclusion in Wikipedia.
You can demonstrate that this text is in the public domain or is already under a license suitable for Wikipedia. Explain this on

Otherwise, you may rewrite this page without copyright-infringing material. Your rewrite should be placed on this page, where it will be available for an administrator or clerk to review it at the end of the listing period.
Follow this link to create the temporary subpage. Please mention the rewrite upon completion on
this article's discussion page.
Simply modifying copyrighted text is not sufficient to avoid copyright infringement—if the original copyright violation cannot be cleanly removed or the article reverted to a prior version, it is best to write the article from scratch. (See
Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing.)
For license compliance, any content used from the original article must be properly attributed; if you use content from the original, please leave a note at the top of your rewrite saying as much. You may duplicate non-infringing text that you had contributed yourself.
It is always a good idea, if rewriting, to identify the point where the copyrighted content was imported to Wikipedia and to check to make sure that the contributor did not add content imported from other sources. When closing investigations, clerks and administrators may find other copyright problems than the one identified. If this material is in the proposed rewrite and cannot be easily removed, the rewrite may not be usable.

Umm al Amad is a Jewish monumental rock-cut tomb located in East Jerusalem within the ancient burial area about 1 km form the Jewish tombs known as the Tombs of the Sanhedrin, west of Har Hotzivm, east of Givat HaMivtar, in an area once called wadi umm al Amad. The tomb is dated to the early Herodian period.[1]
Survey history[edit]
Even though this monumental tomb was surveyed several times in the past, all findings and publications were done in a superficial and unsatisfying manner. Researchers ignored and overlooked important details. The tomb was first mentioned by Barclay in 1875 who called it El- Messauney, then by De vogue who used the same name.[2][3] K. Galling refers to the place as Quadergrab, then G. Dalman, who also visited the place refers to it as Umm al Amad.[4][5] For some reason probably due to a hearing mistake Warren, Conder, and Macalister name the tomb Umm al Aneb.[1][6][7] In government maps and by locals the place is known as Umm el Amad.[1]
Tomb description[edit]
In many ways the tomb is similar to many other monumental tombs in Jerusalem - the rock-cut tomb is typically cut into the slope, featuring a courtyard, an entrance corridor and two rooms with kokhim. Excavating the tomb enabled better understanding of the tomb's design and architectural motifs that in some ways are unique to this place. Finding a buried part of the façade enabled better understanding of the tombs' design that previous researches overlooked and did not see.[1]
The importance of this tomb and what distinguishes it from other tombs in Jerusalem is its façade and corridor walls which show highly professional stone craftsmanship, as well as decorations imitating a constructed wall of six courses of hewn stones, with each stone "brick" possessing recessed margins on all four sides. Similar design can be seen in the Herodian portions of the walls of the Temple Mount, the Tomb of the Patriarchs and the Phasael tower in Tower of David complex.[1]
Like many Jewish tombs of the Second Temple Period, the façade of the tomb mimics that of monumental buildings, such as palaces or shrines, and presents a combination of the Ionic and Doric styles. A distinct indication of this is the frieze, above which is a continuous row of Ionic style dentils while below it there are guttae located directly beneath the triglyphs of the Doric influence. Among the Second temple period tombs of Jerusalem and its surrounding areas, this degree of architectural imitation is found only in this tomb and that in Deir ed-Darb.[1]
