An Early Iron Age Cist Grave at Kibbutz Ha-Zore‘a (Hebrew, pp. 47–51; English summary, p. 66*)

A stone-lined cist grave containing six pottery vessels was exposed at Kibbutz Ha-Zorea‘ on the southeastern fringes of Tel Qiri. The vessels date from the Late Bronze Age until the late Iron Age. This grave-type is characteristic of areas in the country covered with alluvium, in which one could not hew tombs.
