Keywords: burial, cemetery, burial goods, petrography, geology
Seven Middle Bronze Age II vessels from Cave 900 were analyzed. They were divided into two petrographic groups: Group 1, which included a bowl and a ring flask, and Group 2, which included two Tell el-Yahudiyeh juglets, a jug and a juglet; the rhyton can be related to either of the two groups. The raw materials of both groups are available near the site.
