Abstract

A three-meter-wide trench, cut in the southern outskirts of Kafr Kama, exposed part of an ancient cemetery that was in use during the Intermediate Bronze and Iron Ages. Ten rock-hewn shaft tombs were documented; most of them were only partially excavated. The finds within the tombs primarily included pottery vessels. Tomb X yielded a bronze dagger, probably dating to the Intermediate Bronze Age. Evidence for the settlements, whose inhabitants buried their dead in the excavated tombs, is still missing.
