Cave researchers explore stream-filled cavern at entrance to Jerusalem
PhysOrg.com [USA], June 14, 2011

Hebrew University of Jerusalem researchers have conducted an initial
survey of what appears to be an important, ancient water source in a
cave that was been discovered during excavation work for a new train
station being constructed at the entrance to Jerusalem. The work was
done by members of the Cave Research Unit of the university, headed by
Prof. Amos Frumkin of the Department of Geography. The cave was exposed
near the base of a deep service shaft that was dug for the train tunnel
leading into the new station, located opposite the main bus station in
Jerusalem. The full length of the cave is as yet unexplored.
