Abstract
In May–November 1966, the second excavation season was conducted at Belvoir Castle (map ref. 249204/722408), under the direction of M. Ben-Dov and Y. Mintzker. The buildings of the Arab village of Kawkab al-Hawa, which stood on the ruins of the fortress, were dismantled. The collapse layers were removed, and the upper floor of the Crusader fortress was exposed in trial probes dug at a number of points.
