Abstract

Tell el-Fārʿa (South) in southwest Israel is well known from the excavations by FLINDERS PETRIE in 1928 –1929. Between 1998 and 2002, the site was reinvestigated by a team of Ben-Gurion University directed by GUNNAR LEHMANN. The renewed excavations exposed evidence dating from the Middle Bronze Age through the Roman Period. Of particular importance are the fortifications and the ceramics of the Iron Age published here. The evidence from the renewed excavations allows a new evaluation of the site and the northwestern Negev in the context of recent archaeological research in southern Israel.
