Wilson's Arch in Jerusalem connects the upper and lower cities - Edward Robinson, the famous American founder of biblical archaeology, observed in Jerusalem the fragment of an arch that has ever since born his name. This fragment, jutting from the western wall of the temple near the southwest corner, was immediately identified by Robinson as the beginning or springer of the first arch of several supporting the bridge built by Herod the Great to connect the temple area with the western part of the city across the then deep Tyropoeon Valley; Josephus reords the existence of such a bridge. Many books and maps still support this identification.
