Steps leading from the Lower Level of Herod's Northren Palace to a room from where the skeletal remains of three individuals identified with the Jewish rebels who defended Masada 2000 years ago were excavated. Among the most chilling finds was a woman’s braided hair, remarkably preserved.

Also discovered were vestiges of clothing and sandals, arrows, and numerous pieces of mail armor were found. The room is not open for public.
