Eli Shukron

Eli Shukron (Hebrew: אלי שוקרון) is an Israeli archaeologist employed by the Israel Antiquities Authority.

In 2004, Shukron and archaeologist Ronny Reich excavated the Second Temple period Pool of Siloam.

Items discovered in the tunnel appear to confirm Josephus's account of Jews using the sewer as a refuge and escape from the burning city.

[5][6] In September 2009, Shukron and Reich uncovered the ancient Jerusalem pilgrim road.

[9] In December 2022, it was announced that, together with Gershon Galil, he had discovered a summary inscription in the Siloam tunnel recording the deeds of Hezekiah, including the cutting of the tunnel, and giving the date it was completed.
