Abstract

A hewn burial cave north of Tel Hadid was used for interment during Iron Age II and the Early Roman period. The rectangular burial chamber has three hewn shelves in its walls and an elliptical bone repository below the western shelf. Numerous bones were found on the shelves, discarded with other artifacts. The Iron Age finds include ceramic artifacts and a stone bowl. The finds from the Early Roman phase comprise pottery vessels; no ossuaries were discovered.
