A Coastal Rural Occupation of the Medieval Period at ‘En Gev
(pp. 177–191)
Hervé Barbé
Keywords: Sea of Galilee, village, construction techniques
In a salvage excavation conducted south of Kibbutz ‘En Gev, two building phases were observed. The early building remains were constructed prior to the Medieval period, while the later construction was dated to the Medieval period, comprising two complexes. The pottery finds date from the Roman, Byzantine, Early Islamic, Medieval and Ottoman periods. The exposed building complexes are part of a rural occupation on the eastern coast of the Sea of Galilee during the Medieval period, which existed from the twelfth through the fourteenth centuries CE.
