'Atiqot
The excavations at the Armon Ha-Naẓiv tunnel in Jerusalem shed light on its purpose, as well as on the dating of the lower aqueduct’s construction, its periods of use and planning. The excavations exposed the full length of the tunnel and various installations adjacent to the tunnel entrances. It is now possible for the first time to date the aqueduct to the Second Temple period on the basis of archaeological finds. Some changes were made to the aqueduct during the Byzantine period. Following the Muslim conquest and during the Umayyad period, the aqueduct was redirected to the Temple Mount, Haram …

'Atiqot
Excavations in Ashqelon’s Newe Yam Dalet neighborhood revealed a remarkable funerary chapel.The funerary complex comprises a courtyard, a tomb and a roofed chamber. The chamber floor was paved with mosaics, containing three Greek inscription; a fourth inscription was found on a marble slab in secondary use.The epigraphic evidence endorses the interpretation of the site as a cultic complex, perhaps aprivate memorial site of an individual venerated by the community.
Remains From The Late Roman To The Mamluk Periods On Djabsha Street, Old City, Jerusalem: An Early Islamic-Period Fuller’S Workshop? (Pp. 127–146), Hervé Barbé
'Atiqot
A limited salvage excavationon Djabsha Street in the Christian Quarter of the Old City of Jerusalem provided evidence for the occupation of the site from the end of the Roman through the Mamluk period. Asmall workshop was established at the site toward the end of the Byzantine, or perhaps at the beginning of the Early Islamic period. It is assumed that this installation was linked with the processing of skins or cloth (tannery, laundry, dyer, etc.).

The archaeological strata from the 2010–2012 excavations at Magdala revealed finds from four main periods: Stratum IV—Hellenistic (late second–mid-first centuries BCE); Stratum III—Early Roman (mid-first century BCE–67 CE), which is further divided into Phase IIIa, Early Roman 1 (mid–late first century BCE), and Phase IIIb, Early Roman 2 (first century–67 CE); Stratum II—Middle–Late Roman (67–350 CE); and Stratum I—after c. 350 CE. The finds included architectural remains, as well as pottery (bowls, cooking bowls, kraters, cooking pots, jugs, jars and lamps), glass vessels (bowls, beakers, jars, bottles, jugs, wineglasses, windowpanes, spindle whorls, inlays, beads and stirring rods) and coins.

This report discusses 26 shells from the excavations at Beqo‘a. The malacological evidence from Beqo‘a during the Chalcolithic and EB IB indicates contacts with the Nile River, as reflected by the presence of the freshwater bivalve Chambardia rubens, as well as with the Mediterranean, which is reflected by the presence of Glycymeris nummaria.

Chalcolithic And Early Bronze Age Ib Fauna From Beqo‘A (Pp. 67–74), Edward F. Maher
'Atiqot
The Zooarchaeological finds from Beqo‘a date from the Chalcolithic period (Stratum III) and EB IB (Strata II–I). The faunal assemblage consists of 207 animal bones and tooth fragments belonging to cattle (Bos taurus), donkey (Equus asinus), gazelle (Gazella sp.), pig (Sus scrofa) and Sheep/Goat (Ovis/Capra). The fauna from both phases of occupation is dominated by domestic stock; wild species were rarely exploited. The limited mortality data suggest that animals were culled at varying stages, and therefore, utilized for both primary and secondary animal products.

Rescue excavations carried out near Moshav Beqo‘a revealed a proto-historic site with remains from two major occupation periods: the Chalcolithic and Early Bronze Age. Stratum III dates from the Ghassulian phase of the Chalcolithic period, and the two subsequent Strata II–I date from late EB I. The primary feature exposed in Stratum II is a building with rounded corners and an adjacent circular structure, perhaps a granary.

A total of 5128 flint artifacts was collectedfrom the excavation at Beqo‘a. Approximately 70% of the flint artifacts were retrieved from the Chalcolithic layer (Stratum III); the remainder were from the Early BronzeAge IB (Strata II and I).The Stratum III assemblage is homogeneous and typical of Late Chalcolithic–Ghassulian assemblages. As the site is located within an environment of available raw materials, flint production was an integral partof the site’s economy.

An Excavation Near A Pre-Pottery Neolithic A Flint Quarry Onkaizer Hill, Modi‘In (Pp. 1–8), Polina Spivak
'Atiqot
A trial excavation conducted on the eastern slope of Kaizer Hill, Modi‘in, uncovered anthropogenic bedrock markings, possibly related to flint quarrying activity, and a Pre-Pottery Neolithic A (PPNA) flint industry. Four natural rock steps of limestone bedrock were exposed, and flint items were systematically collected. On the surface and edges of the rock steps, dense concentrations of bedrock cupmarks were documented, probably the result of the extraction of flint nodules.

A typical group of Crusader glass vessels was found in the “Ganor Compound” in Yafo, as well as a single bottle from the late tenth and early eleventh centuries CE. The Crusader glass mainly includes beakers and bottles of common types. Remains of glass production were also found: small chunks of raw glass, a small glass drop and remains of bricks, walls or floors of the furnaces; these could belong to either primary or secondary production stages. It seems that most of the vessels were locally made.

Excavations in the “Ganor Compound” in Yafo exposed potsherds from the Early Islamic (eighth–eleventh centuries CE) to the end of the Crusader (twelfth–thirteenth centuries CE) periods. The Early Islamic pottery includes glazed bowls, kraters, a cooking pot, a jar, jugs and amphoriskoi; a stone-bowl handle was also found. The ceramic assemblage from the Crusader period consists of two main groups: local and imported vessels. The local pottery includes glazed and unglazed bowls, a krater, cooking pots, frying pans, a table amphora, jugs, a juglet and oil lamps. The imported vessels attest to flourishing trade between the city port of Yafo …

The coin finds from Jerusalem Boulevard in Yafo represent a wide chronological range, from the second century BCE to the early years of the State of Israel, reflecting the city’s long and multiple-layered history. Among the coins were two Seleucid-period small bronzes; a single prutah from the Roman period; three Byzantine-period coins—a small pre-reform copper nummus, a post-reform nummus and a follis; Ummayad post-reform coppers; two medieval silver coins—one of them is a square-cut dirham; and five Late Ottoman currencies, including a gold 10 franc coin of Napoleon III and a pierced 5 Milliemes.
