Abstract
The stone-object assemblage from Gane Ṭal consists mainly of household implements, such as grinding bowls, grinding stones, millstones and pierced stones. These were made of locally available beachrock or limestone, or basalt. Three objects were made of exotic materials: two marble tiles and a granite object. Such household items are common finds in excavations throughout Israel.
