Tell Zeror

Japanese: テル・ゼロール(英語表記)Tell Zeror
Tell Zeror
The ruins of an ancient city in the northern Sharon Plain, Israel. It is located near the intersection of the ancient "Via Maris" sea route and the road from the coast to Samaria. The tell is gourd-shaped, with a height of about 10m. Its area is about 4ha. It has been suggested that it corresponds to one or two cities in the Chronicle of Thutmose III, but this has not been confirmed. Excavations were carried out by Ohata Kiyoshi and others from 1964 to 1966 and in 1974, and 22 layers were identified, ranging from the Middle Bronze Age to the Middle Ages. The oldest town is the largest in terms of size, and is dated to the second half of the Middle Bronze Age II, and is fortified by Hyksos-style walls with a moat and bastions.
