In the first century BC, Herod the Great built a large open-air pool.[2] In the second century, Roman Emperor Hadrian added arched vaulting to enable pavement to be placed over the pool, making it a large cuboid cistern to gather rainwater from guttering on the forum buildings. On the surface, Hadrian built a triple-arched gateway[3] as an entrance to the eastern forum of the Aelia Capitolina in Jerusalem.[4][5][6] The northern arch is preserved under the apse of the Basilica of Ecce Homo.
