The Foundation Stone (
Hebrew: אבן השתייה,
translit. Even haShetiya) or Rock (
Arabic:
translit. Sakhrah,
Hebrew:
translit.: Sela) is the name of the rock at the heart of the
Dome of the Rock. It is also known as the Pierced Stone due to it having a small hole on the southeastern corner that enters a cavern beneath the rock, known as the
Well of Souls.
