In August 2017, a salvage excavation was carried out c. 300 south of
'Enot Shuni (Shumi; Permit No. A-8079; map ref. 195568/715534; Fig. 1),
after antiquities were discovered during inspection prior to the
installation of underground infrastructure. The excavation, undertaken on
behalf of the Israel Antiquities Authority and funded by the Rushdi Halabi
Brothers Company, was directed by E. Oren, with the assistance of Y. Amrani
(administration), V. Essman (surveying and drafting), A. Dagot (GPS), P.
Gendelman (pottery) and M. Shuiskaya (pottery drawing), as well as M.
Masarwa and K. Sa'id of the IAA Haifa District.
