Abstract

Tomb 8050 is a Middle Bronze (MB) Age ii mortuary structure located in Area L, west of Tel Kabri's palatial building. The tomb dates to Phase III of the palace, within the MB II (MB IIb). This chapter focuses on the architecture and dating of the tomb, with the contents, including the ceramic assemblage, detailed elsewhere within this volume. The human remains within the tomb have not yet been studied but appeared to be secondary burials with no primary burial yet found.
