Abstract
In a salvage excavation on the main street in Kafr Kama, two cist tombs were uncovered. One of them (Tomb 202) contained a variety of glass vessels, dating from the Late Roman period (the third century CE), as well as bronze rings and a bronze firepan. The remains of two buildings from the Byzantine and Early Islamic periods were exposed. The buildings were dated to between the end of the sixth and the middle of the eighth centuries CE by the pottery recovered from the fills above their floors.
