While the entire EB I–III sequence is probably represented, spanning from ca. the second half of the fourth to the first half of the third millennia BCE – based upon the ceramic typo-chronology of the region and systematic surface survey at the site (Uziel and Maeir 2005, 2012a, 2012b), our excavation activities at the site on this period have largely concentrated on the EB III...
