Masada black lines

I took this photo in Masada, Israel. Masada is an ancient fortification on  the top of rock in the eastern edge of Judaean Desert and is known for one of the battlefields of the First Jewish-Roman War. As time went by, Masada became one of the most popular must-see-sights in Israel, and there were cable cars available to get to Masada from the bottom of the rock. The photo shows a part of Masada and there are black lines on the walls. I've heard that everything under the black lines were original and everything upper the black lines were after restoration which looked like exactly the same as before.
