In the Agamemnon of Aschylus, the hypocritical Clytemnestra commands the maids to spread carpets before her returning husband, that on his descending from his chariot he may place his foot on "a purple-covered path." We also find this custom among the Romans. Plutarch relates, that when Cato of Utica left the Macedonian army, where he had become legionary tribune, the soldiers spread their clothes in the way.

It is extremely probable, therefore, that Ramoth-gilead, being a frontier town of Israel and Syria, had a tower of this nature; and that Jehu was proclaimed king on the top of the stairs by which they ascended the hill on which the tower stood, i.e., in the area before the door of the tower, and consequently the most public place in the city. blew with trumpets 2Sam 15:10; 1Kgs 1:34, 1Kgs 1:39; Ps 47:5-7, Ps 98:6 is king Heb. reigneth conspired 2Kgs 9:31, 2Kgs 8:12-15, 2Kgs 10:9, 2Kgs 15:30; 1Kgs 15:27, 1Kgs 16:7, 1Kgs 16:9, 1Kgs 16:16 kept Ramothgilead 2Kgs 8:28; 1Kgs 22:3
