'''Nekropolis Silwan''' ({{lang-en|Silwan necropolis}}) adalah tempat pemakaman kuno paling penting di Israel, dan diyakini digunakan oleh para pejabat tinggi yang pernah tinggal di [[Yerusalem]]. Makam-makam itu digali antara abad ke-9 dan abad ke-7 SM<ref name=Ussishkin70>[http://www.academia.edu/3148025/The_Necropolis_from_the_Time_of_the_Kingdom_of_Judah_at_Silwan_Jerusalem] The Necropolis from the Time of the Kingdom of Judah at Silwan, Jerusalem, David Ussishkin, The Biblical Archaeologist, Vol. 33, No. 2 (May, 1970), pp. 33-46</ref> Terletak di lereng timur berbatu karang pada [[Lembah Kidron]], menghadap ke arah [[Kota Daud|bagian tertua Yerusalem]].

Meskipun keberadaan makam-makam kuno di desa Silwan telah diketahui sejak abad ke-19, penelitian seksama baru dilakukan pada tahun 1968. [[Charles Warren]], yang upaya penelitiannya dihalangi di daerah pemukiman penduduk desa, menyalahkan "sikap bermusuhan penduduk desa" yang digambarkannya sebagai "tidak tahu peraturan" (''lawless set'').<ref name=Ussishkin70/><ref>Charles Warren, ''Underground Jerusalem,'' (1876), p. 149.</ref> Semua makam telah lama dikosongkan dan isinya telah diambil.<ref name=Ussishkin/>

A great deal of destruction was done to the tombs over the centuries by quarrying and by their conversion for use as housing, both by monks in the Byzantine period, when they were used as monks' cells and some even as churches, and later by Muslim villagers "[w]hen the Arab village was built; tombs were destroyed, incorporated in houses or turned into water cisterns and sewage dumps."<ref name=Ussishkin70/>
