Abstract

In January–April 1968, three excavations were conducted in Be'er Sheva (map ref. unknown), under the direction of R. Cohen, following construction and development work in the city. In Shikun D, a group of eight graves arranged in three rows was exposed, which included a grave built of ashlar stones containing the interment of a man and a woman. A stone with a cross engraved in a palm leaf pattern was placed next to the heads of the deceased. Near the graves was a plastered pit containing architectural elements and fragments of pottery jars that were dated to the Byzantine period.
