Abu Qrenat

Abu Qrenat or Abu Karinat (Arabic: ابو قرينات; Hebrew: אבו קרינאת) is a Bedouin[broken anchor] village in Israel.

Located in the northwestern Negev, it falls under the jurisdiction of Neve Midbar Regional Council.

[1] In 2016 a trial archaeological excavation took place at the El-Ghanami Neighborhood ahead of development work.

The excavation revealed intensive agricultural activity in the region, mostly from the Byzantine (4th-7th centuries CE), Mamluk and Ottoman periods (15th-19th centuries CE).

The findings included poor remains of structures (including a possible open mosque), installations, dams, cave dwellings, tombs and terraces.
