to the northeastern edge of the prospected
area (between squares E4 and G6) corres-
ponded to the run of the slope and the road
running adjacent to the slope.
North of the road, where the prospec-
tion aimed at demonstrating the extent of
settlement on the plateau north of the tell,
nothing but plow marks and a road were
reflected on the magnetic map.
AREA D
Measurements covered 0.7 ha. The eastern
part was partly on the tell slope, the mid-
dle part on a plateau that falls away to the
west. Prospection in this area was meant to
register the potential remains of a 2nd-
millenium defense system surrounding the
main tell, as suggested by Mall'owan.6
