Rock–cut Steps 2

View looking east at the rock–cut steps located just to the south of the Chapel of the Primacy of Peter.  These steps were seen by Egeria in A.D. 383.  They actually may be remnants of an old quarry.

Compare the level of the water of the Sea of Galilee in this image with that of the previous one!

In the lower  portion of the image five of the heart–shaped “Twelve Thrones” are visible.
