Inside BAR
In about 1000 B.C. David, king of Israel, marched his army up a steep hill called Jebus by its occupiers and, on the summit, captured the Fortress of Zion, the citadel that the Jebusites had built several hundred years earlier. The 15-acre site then became known as the City of David. The name has survived for three millennia; it still refers to the same rocky spur, the most ancient Jerusalem.
