The confusing online release of the Israel Antiquities Authority mentions the Hasmonean-built Low-level Aqueduct (2nd–1st centuries BCE) at the same spot where archaeologists discovered "four phases of different aqueducts that were constructed in exactly the same spot" starting in the Byzantine-period, the 6th–7th centuries CE.

[1] A covered and plastered rock-hewn canal from the Roman period was discovered throughout the pool; it is likely from the time of Herod.

On the pool dam, Suleiman the Magnificent built a sebil for the use of pedestrians, which has been preserved to this day.

Today, the Hebron Road passes over the dam.The Sultan's Pool is dry in summer and is used as a major event venue for concerts and festivals.

[4] Many international artists have performed at the site during their visit to Israel, including Dire Straits (who played the second concert of the Brothers in Arms Tour in the Sultan Pool's, in 1985), Eurythmics, Leonard Cohen, James Taylor, Eric Clapton, Bob Dylan, Tom Petty, Jethro Tull, Madonna, Radiohead and others.
