The stone tool assemblage was suggested to be similar to other early neolithic sites in the Jordan valley and included El Khiam points.

The radiocarbon date of charcoal suggested occupation earlier than the sites of Netiv Hagdud or Jericho providing insight into different means of subsistence in upland areas during this transitional phase prior to the development of farming in the Jordan valley.

[3] Sue Colledge has suggested that along with Tell Aswad, the site shows the earliest evidence for domesticated cereal morphology, claiming the site has the "earliest dated evidence for the use of domestic cereals in southwestern Asia" with a date range from approximately 9600 to 9475 BCE.

[5] Colledge assumed finds of domesticated barley (Hordeum vulgare) and wheat (likely Triticum turgidum dicoccum) were growing in secondary habitats.

[8] Graeme Barker has suggested that the spikelet forks and glume bases of domesticated wheat found were likely emmer.
