Beisamoun is an important archaeological site for the Neolithic period, with two plastered human skulls, cremation signs and house floors found there.
It stood in close proximity to another major Natufian ("Final Old Stone Age") site, 'Ain Mallaha.
Kathleen Kenyon notes that Beisamoun disappeared under modern drainage systems set up by Israel; in the fish ponds created, Neolithic remains were found that included houses and two plastered skulls.
[13] It was depopulated during the 1948 War on May 25, 1948, by the Palmach's First Battalion in Operation Yiftach in a Whispering campaign.
