Baqa El-Gharbiya Area: A Roman-Period Cemetery And Other Finds (With Contributions By Peter Gendelman, Donald T. Ariel And Hamoudi Khalaily) (Hebrew, Pp. 105*–136*; English Summary, Pp. 161–162), Amir Gorzalczany
'Atiqot
Excavations at the southern and eastern fringes of Ḥorbat Kosit, west of Baqa el-Gharbiya, uncovered the peripheral area of the site, which was exploited for various industrial uses and for burial. At Ḥorbat Kosit (East) three strata were recorded, the main one (Stratum III) including a Roman-period burial ground. The site of Naḥal Hadera (North) yielded 24 rock-cut graves of a type previously assigned to the Essene or the Nabbatean populations. At Ḥorbat Kosit (South), numerous rock-cut installations, cisterns and a tomb were recovered; the finds date from Early Bronze Age I to the Roman period.

'Atiqot
Some 700 glass fragments were recovered from two burial caves exposed in Area E at Ḥorbat Nazur. Most of the vessel types are characteristic of the Byzantine period (fourth–sixth centuries CE). The assemblage is dominated by closed-vessel types, as is typical of burial offerings of the period, suggesting that at least some of the vessels correspond to the burial phase.

'Atiqot
Five excavation areas were investigated at Ḥorbat Nazur, between Naḥal ‘Iron in the north and Naḥal Narbeta in the south. In Areas A and B the remains of a massive building, dating from the Hellenistic or possibly the Persian period, were uncovered. Area C was probably part of the agricultural hinterland of the settlement, revealing various installations, terrace walls and fences of unknown date. In Area E, two burial caves, quarries and a winepress were unearthed, alldating to the Byzantine period.

'Atiqot
The human skeletal remains from Tomb 80 in the ‘En Esur cemetery indicate that a minimum number of 94 individuals were buried there during Early Bronze Age I. The life expectancy calculated for the interred seems to support the excavators' hypothesis concerning their lower socio-economic status.

'Atiqot
Within the boundaries of the ancient cemeteries associated with the protohistoric settlement of ‘En Esur, another tomb (T80), dated to EB IB–EB II, was discovered. A close examination of the burial gifts reveals a notable regionalism, in contrast with the imported and luxurygoodsdiscovered in other tombs in the ‘En Esur cemeteries. The local nature of the finds and lack of prestige items, as well as the anthropological analysis of the interred, might suggest that a less-affluent group of people was buried here.

'Atiqot
Seven vessels retrieved from inside the Middle Bronze Age II kiln at Tel Malot were sampled and petrographically studied. The significance of conducting a petrographic analysis of pottery found in a kiln lies in the reference data it providesconcerning local production. The analysis of thepotsherds from the MB II kiln at Tel Malot indicates that the raw materials were obtained locally.

'Atiqot
This report presents the results of two separate salvage excavations conducted east of Tel Malot in the region of ‘Emeq Ayyalon. The earliest presence at the site dates to the early Pottery Neolithic period, comprising an occupation horizon and pits. Several other pits contained artifacts of the Chalcolithic period. The excavated area was also settledduring Middle Bronze Age II, and possibly through Late Bronze Age I, when the area served for agricultural and industrial activities. Remains from the Iron Age and Persian period are meager. A winepress from the Hellenistic period suggests the existence of a farming community at the …

Prehistoric Investigations Along The Cross-Israel Highway: State Of Research (Pp. 5–23), Hamoudi Khalaily, Ofer Marder
'Atiqot
Prehistoric research along the Cross-Israel Highway was undertaken from the earliest planning stages of the archaeological surveys along the intended route. During this survey, much data was accumulated concerning site function, economics, intra-site interaction etc. In the systematic survey and the subsequent excavations, 31 prehistoric sites were identified, dating from the Lower Paleolithic period to the Chalcolithic period, covering a time span of c. 500,000 years. This review presents a brief description of the surveyed and excavated sites for which there is available data, as well as a comparison with other sites from the same period.

'Atiqot
Archaeological investigations along the Cross-Israel Highway were conducted in several stages. First, the main tells along the projected route were marked and the route was planned to bypass them; then, comprehensive surveys commenced, during which allsites were documented, including recommendations as to which of them should be excavated and to what extent. Trial excavations followed, in cooperation with the archaeological institutes of the universities. Subsequently,salvage excavations were conducted in accordance with the data retrieved from the surveys and trial excavations. The intensive surveys and excavations along the Cross-Israel Highway revealed sites that had been hitherto unknown and, in addition, providedimportant …

A Seventh-Century Bce Site Near Tel ‘En Zippori (Pp. 15–25), Aviram Oshri, Zvi Gal
'Atiqot
The Small tell of ‘En Zippori is located in a fertile valley, near the cluster of springs known as ‘Ayanot Zippori. Meager structural remains were uncovered at the site, revealing a one-stratum occupation, dated to the seventh–early sixth centuries BCE. The pottery, found in situ on the bedrock floor and covered with ash, exhibits both coastal and inland ceramic traditions, including typical Iron Age II forms and later Persian-period types. The site underwent a violent destruction, probably during the Assyrian campaign led by Tiglath Pileser III, and was subsequently abandoned.
Coins From The Late Byzantine Remains Near Shiqmona (Pp. 219–223), Robert Kool

'Atiqot
The coins from Shiqmona were uncovered in the remains of the monastery, the buildings, within the winepress and on the surface above the winepress. Out of the fifteen identified coins, fourteen date to one continuous period, from the early fourth century until the reign of the Byzantine emperor Justinian II; one is an Ayyubid copper fals. Comparison with the numismatic evidence from previous excavations at Shiqmona, in 1994 and 1998, shows similarities in periodization and types of coins in circulation.

'Atiqot
The excavation at Shiqmona yielded 425 glass fragments of local types, known from almost all nearby sites, as well as production waste. The finds from this excavation are probably connected with the glass production activity encountered in many sites in the area of the Haifa bay and Mount Carmel, attesting to the prosperity of this craft in the area during the Late Roman and Byzantine periods.

'Atiqot
The pottery from the Byzantine monastery near Shiqmona was found in three loci, sealed beneath the chapel floor; they date the construction of the floor to the sixth–seventh centuries CE. The finds from the buildings include bases with impressed decorations—male figures, a rabbit and a cross—common in the late fifth–early sixth centuries CE. The pottery from the winepress was found in the collecting pits, which later became waste dumps, comprising vessels from the sixth century CE, most of which continued until the seventh century. The finds from the tombs, although robbed or disturbed prior to the excavation, also date to …

Coin Hoard From A Fourth-Century Ce Shipwreck Off The Carmel Coast (Pp. 137–145), Donald T. Ariel
'Atiqot
A total of 75 coins, dated to a quite restricted period within the fourth century CE, were most probably part of a hoard. All the coins are copper folles denomination; most of them derive from western mints, particularly Rome, as would be expected for the first quarter of the fourth century CE in the southern Levant. This hoard conforms to the currency inland.

Late Byzantine Remains Near Shiqmona: A Monastery, A Cemetery And A Winepress (Pp. 147–182), Raz Kletter
'Atiqot
Excavation at the site of Shiqmona, east of the Tel Aviv–Haifa highway, revealed finds from the late Byzantine period, including a monastery, a large winepress, a dozen rock-cut tombs and two large buildings. The monastery is a large building, incorporating the chapel excavated by Makhouly in 1940, which was re-discovered. The monastery was dated on the basis of the meager pottery finds to the sixth century CE. North and south of the chapel were found marble and stone fragments, probably originating from the chapel, adorned with motifs known from mosaics of the same period. The finds here point that Shiqmona …

Coin Hoard From A Third-Century Ce Shipwreck Off The Carmel Coast (Pp. 111–135), Ya'akov Meshorer
'Atiqot
Some 162 coins were retrieved from the shipwreck site off the Carmel coast, originating from a third-century CE ship. The hoard consists of 71 silver coins, 86 bronze coins, three billon and two lead tesserae. Dominating the hoard are 68 Roman denars, dating from Claudius to Marcus Aurelius. The coin hoard allows us to easily trace the route of the wrecked ship. It apparently sailed from Alexandria and anchored along the Mediterranean Sea at Ashqelon, Jaffa, Caesarea Maritima, ‘Akko-Ptolemais, Tyre, Berytus, Antioch and the southern coast of Asia Minor, and from there to Rome via Greece.

'Atiqot
Rescue operations on the shallow seabed off the Carmel coast retrieved ancient artifacts from two Roman-period shipwrecks. More than 1000 metal objects were retrieved, including nails, lead sheathing, anchors, lead rings, fishing gear, netting tools, figurines, jewelry and various other daily implements used onboard. Scores of silver and bronze coins attributable to two hoards were found, indicating that two ship wreckages occurred at the site: one during the third century CE and the other during the fourth century CE.

'Atiqot
Within the boundaries of the ancient cemetery at Azor several Iron Age I tombs were discovered. The tombs represent four burial types: pits, burial jars, mudbrick-built tombs and cist graves lined with kurkar slabs. The burial offerings comprise local wares, as well as imported vessels, some dating from Late Bronze Age IIB. Also uncovered at the site were a refuse pit from the Byzantine–Umayyad periods and thirteen tombs, probably from the Ottoman period.
Iron-Age Quarries, Second Temple-Period Installations And An Ottoman Watchtower On The Southern Slope Of Mount Scopus, Jerusalem (Pp. 27–43), Amit Re’Em
'Atiqot
The southern slope of Mount Scopus is characterized by soft white limestone, which served in ancient times for hewing tombs and quarrying stones. Within one of the quarries, installations dating to the Second Temple period were exposed, post-dating the quarrying activity, which should be attributed to the Iron Age. The tombs documented on the slopes of Mount Scopus are of the loculi type, belonging to the northern necropolis of Jerusalem in the late Second Temple period. Based on the plan of the tombs, as well as the ossuaries and pottery finds found within one of them, it appears that they …

Settlement Remains From The Bronze And Iron Ages At Ḥorbat Menorim (El-Manara), Lower Galilee (Pp. 1–14), Karen Covello-Paran
'Atiqot
The previously unexcavated site of Ḥorbat Menorim overlooks the Sea of Galilee and enjoys several springs located on its slopes. Three strata were exposed at the site, including well-preserved architectural elements dating to Early Bronze Age I and Iron Age IIA. Pottery dating from the Intermediate Bronze Age and Middle Bronze Age IIB was found as well. The EB I and Iron IIA pottery assemblages closely connect the site to the region of the Yavne’el Valley, to sites such as Tel Yin‘am and Tel Adami. It seems that the location of the site on the passage of the caravan route …
Or ‘Aqivq: Remains Of A Farming Complex And Irrigation System From The End Of The Byzantine–Beginning Of The Early Islamic Periods In The Agricultural Hinterlandof Caesarea (Hebrew, Pp. 49*–60*; English Summary, Pp. 133–134), Uzi Ad
'Atiqot
Salvage excavations in the northern industrial zone of Or ‘Aqiva unearthed a complex belonging to the agricultural hinterland of Caesarea during the late Byzantine–Early Islamic periods. The complex included a building, a well, a water channel, a large round plaza and walls that delimited paths in the cultivated area. The finds included pottery, glass vessels and coins, mainly dating to the late Byzantine–Early Islamic periods. The architectural finds and the impressive size of the round plaza imply that the complex was built under state initiative. The irrigation system exposed here is the fist evidence of agricultural activity in a region …

The Tel Tanninim Aqueduct (Channel E) From The Byzantine Period (Hebrew, Pp. 13*–24*; English Summary, Pp. 199–200), Yosef Porath
'Atiqot
A section of an aqueduct (Channel E), which led water to the Byzantine settlement and monastery(?) at Tel Tanninim, was found some seventy meters west of the High Aqueduct to Caesarea. New data concerning the water level in the Lower Aqueduct to Caesarea dismissed the previous hypothesis that the Lower Aqueduct was the water source of Channel E. The results of several surveys and excavations pertaining to the question of the water source of Channel E, point to the High Aqueduct to Caesarea as its water source. Excavations clearly showed that Channel E was built in two stages: first a …
