Ted: thanks for pointing out that you posted the video too. It was not obvious from the picture that it links to a video.
This is no secret. I have a book in which the whole matter s described and discussed as to how the ancient diggers were able to meet up with a deviation of merely a few feet.. I must have read it about 50 years ago already. It describes how the approaching groups heard voices and tspped their picks getting a response etc
.I have been through the tunnel at least 2/3 times and there is that step, above which is an inscription that this was the spot where the two digging groups met. I read later that the original had been removed to some foreign museum, and this was just a notice-in English- as I recall.
It may also have been in Hebrew which I do not remember.
The system of measurements was fully described as how it MUST have been , which, of course was speculation, but of a high order, considering the various systems available at that far away. time.
A marvellous achievement.

The video tells you what was written and when it was written.
T’would be nice if someone were to report what’s written there and maybe even xlate to English.
