Before the Israelites, Jerusalem was inhabited by the Jebusites, a Canaanite tribe. Archaeological evidence suggests that the city was established as early as the Bronze Age, with various cultures and peoples, including the Egyptians and the Amorites, having influence over the region. The Jebusites held control of the city until it was conquered by King David around 1000 BCE, who then established it as the capital of Israel.
