Description
Summary:Tel Rekhesh, a site located in the eastern Lower Galilee, has been excavated since 2006. The primary results of the first four seasons of excavations enable the reconstruction of a flourishing Iron I settlement that covered the entire area of the site — the upper mound as well as its lower terrace. The Iron I architecture includes public buildings, installations and what appears to be cultic finds. It was preceded by LB, MB IIB and EB II–III settlements, detected in various excavated areas. The next season will focus on some questions that arose during the first four seasons.
