Kharaysin is a Pre-Pottery Neolithic site (PPN) located in the village of Quneya, at the Zarqa River valley, Jordan.
[citation needed] The PPN site is interpreted as possibly having an extension of 25 ha with some areas being flat and others having zones with relatively steep slopes.
[2] In one zone, two oval semi-sunken houses with plaster floors were excavated and dated from the beginning of the ninth millennium cal BC, the late phase of the PPNA.
[2] In another zone, there are several squared houses with rounded corners and central fireplaces from the second half of the ninth millennium cal BC, during the Early PPNB.
[1] Bipolar technology, Amuq, Byblos, and Jericho points as well as bent sickle blades were observed in the Middle PPNB occupation phase.
