Summary:
Mention of two memorial monuments in the Valley of Jehoshaphat, the tombs of the prophet Isaiah and King Hezekiah, from an itinerary of ca. AD 333.
The Tomb of Isaiah "formed from a single rock" is presumably the later Tomb of Zachariah, while the other monument is the later Tomb of Absalom. Cf. Wilkinson.
