Tall Damiyah is a small settlement mound with evidence of continuous occupation throughout the Iron Age, located in the flood plains of the Jordan Valley.

[2] Remains of at least two buildings[clarification needed] have been investigated, including adjacent areas of differing elevations, thought to be used for strategic ends.

As put in a 2014 field report: "Previously unknown in Near Eastern archaeology and even beyond, this systematic sedentary occupation forces scientists to widen their geographic scope, in order to understand how these people interacted with the surrounding area.

Inhabitants of the Central Jordan Valley during Iron Age II and the Persian Period were unequivocally engaged in a continuing cycle of migration, returning to previously settled sites; in other words, searching for preferred areas but leading a sedentary way of life.

"[2] Recent excavations at Tall Damiyah have been led by Lucas P. Petit of the Dutch National Museum of Antiquities and Zeidan Kafafi of Jordan's Yarmouk University.
