Funding Information:2. EXCAVATIONS Seven seasons of excavations, each lasting about two to four weeks, were carried out between 1982-1987 under the direction of the author, assisted by Nivi Mirkam, who was also the administrator, and Zvi Lederman who was the expedition surveyor. Area supervisors in the various seasons were Shlomo Pipano, Shmuel Yosef, Anabel Zarazetski, Hanni and Rafi Grinberg, Idan Shaked, Ori Ra'i and Alon Shavit.

Pottery was restored by Amaliya Katzenelson and Idan Shaked. Judith Dekel drew the plans and Daliya Egozi the map. Reconstructions were drawn by Judith Dekel and Lane Ritmeyer.
