Meleke in the Western Wall, Jerusalem.
Meleke (Arabic: ملكي, "royal", "kingly"; Hebrew: אבן ירושלמית), also transliterated melekeh or malaki, is a lithologic type of white, coarsely-crystalline, thickly bedded-limestone found in the Judaean Mountains in Israel.[1][2] It has been used in the traditional architecture of Jerusalem since ancient times, especially in Herodian architecture.[3] Though it is often popularly referred to as Jerusalem stone, that phrase can refer to a number of different types of stone found and used in or associated with Jerusalem.[4]
