This campaign focused on studying sector 6200, where the structures of a Late Antique building were better defined. It identified two construction phases and a compacted earth floor, offering valuable insights into the configuration of one of the buildings.<\/p>\n

Significant discoveries included a Palestinian amphora of the LRA 4 type, as well as ceramic fragments and coins, shedding new light on the use and occupation of this area in Late Roman times. Ground-penetrating radar studies were also conducted in other areas of the site to improve understanding of the settlement\u2019s urban layout.<\/p>\n
