[Text on the Left Side of the Marker]:

The foundations of this palace, first investigated by Y. Yadin in 1960, are presently being excavated by 'The Megiddo Expedition'. The edifice was apparently laid out as a bit hilani (North Syrian palace) whose architecture included a monumental porticoed entrance and a large central ceremonial hall.

[Text across the Bottom of the Marker]:

"And he made the hall of pillars (...) there was a porch in front with pillars, and a canopy before them. (...) and he made the hall of judgement (...) his own house where he was to dwell, in the other court back of the hall (...)" (I Kings 7: 6-8. Description of Solomon's palace in Jerusalem, possibly built as a bit hilani)
