Hi

Can you explain how this applies to the below sentence?

The narrow ridge, the site of early Jerusalem and today packed with houses occupied mostly by Palestinian residents, conceals a subterranean labyrinth of natural caves, Canaanite water channels, Judaean tunnels, and Roman quarries.

After reading below responses, I understood the ending part as it is a list. But I didn’t understand ”the site of early Jerusalem and today packed with houses occupied mostly by Palestinian residents...”

Can you please explain?

Sentence structure:
The Narrow Ridge, <<<Modifier>>>, conceals a ....

Modifier : "The site of early jerusalem and today packed with xyzzz..."

"Early" and "Today" are list that is providing additional info of "The site"

As per my earlier reply, we need "X and Y" format here.
