The south face is vertical, and has in it the ao-called Grotto of J eremiah. Farther along in this southern face, which does not run in a straight line, great quantities of stone have been quarried within the past few years. Towards the east the hill does not fall in a single slope, but as it were in two terraces. The hill may be said to be prolonged in this direction, the eastern knoll or second terrace being a little lower than the other.
