In the early 2ooo’s the biblical Pool of Siloam was rediscovered due to some utility work, but was only partially excavated due to a land dispute with nearby landowners.  But this year further excavation was begun when this dispute was resolved.

This article gives a progress report on the excavation: https://www.foxnews.com/world/steps-where-jesus-walked-and-healed-a-blind-man-unearthed-for-first-time-in-2000-years

Please note that the WBM Israel tour visits this site each year and we are hoping that we will see the completely excavated Pool of Siloam by the time the tour happens this coming June!
