Site Description

A low mound north of Naḥal Shelef and Khallat Abu Ḥalaḥ in the Menashe hills (Daliya Survey Site 31-152). Ron Beeri directed IAA trial excavation A-7206 in 2014 along the eastern edge. The excavation exposed Intermediate Bronze, Middle Bronze and Iron I remains, with Middle Bronze IIC–Late Bronze I pottery out of primary position and a channel of Hellenistic date or later. The marker is the approximate midpoint of the published excavation grid extent. See Beeri 2022, figs. 1–3 and plan 1.
