Nahal Oren (archaeological site)

[1] The site comprises a cave and the small terrace in front of it, which steeply descends towards the wadi floor.

[1] Kebaran (Upper Paleolithic), Natufian (Epipaleolithic) and Pre-Pottery Neolithic A and B (PPNA, PPNB) industries were found.

[3] In 1985 the three spikelets of cultivated emmer found in a Kebaran context in Wadi Oren were seen to be so early as to be considered an anomaly.

[4][dubious – discuss] A PPNA village of some 13 subcircular houses and other structures stood on four artificial, closely set terraces.

There were no grave goods in the burial pit, and the skeleton was complete with the exception of the skull, which had been removed - an early example of a practice better known from the later Neolithic.
