The fortified hill on Jerusalem's southeastern ridge that David took from the Jebusites and called the city of David. He built his palace there. Archaeologists have uncovered the Stepped Stone Structure on that ridge, and many tie it to David's time.

Zion was originally the fortified hill on Jerusalem's southeastern ridge that David captured from the Jebusites and made his capital, building his palace there and giving it the name “the city of David.” Excavations on this ridge have exposed a massive Stepped Stone Structure and an adjoining Large Stone Structure that many archaeologists link to fortifications from David's era, along with tunnels including Warren's Shaft and Hezekiah's Tunnel. Later biblical writers extended the name to cover all of Jerusalem, then Israel as God's chosen people, and New Testament writers apply it to the church and to the heavenly city.
