Tell Rad Shaqrah

[2] Tell Rad Shaqrah covers an area of about 1 hectare and rises to 6 meters above the plain.

The expedition from the Polish Centre of Mediterranean Archaeology University of Warsaw was directed by Piotr Bieliński.

Earlier in the framework of the same project, Polish archaeologists conducted research at the sites of Tell Djassa and Tell Abu Hafur.

[7] The settlement was encircled by a 4-meter-thick wall built of mud-brick, with thick (more than 6 meters) buttresses faced with basalt blocks.

The child burials yielded the richest and most diverse grave furnishings, consisting of vessels as well as jewelry made of bronze, stone, shells, and other materials.
