Tel Mevorakh

Haifa District, Israel

Tel Mevorakh (32.5336°N 34.9267°E / 32.5336; 34.9267; Hebrew: תל מבורך, Arabic: Tell Mbarak تلّ مبارك) is a small mound situated on the southern bank of Nahal Taninim (River of the Crocodiles) in Israel. The tel does not exceed 1 dunam (0.25 acres) but rises to a height of 15 metres (50 ft) above its surrounding plain. The site contains some fifteen layers of human settlement, which accumulate to a height of 8 meters, meaning the natural hill does not exceed a height of 7 meters. It is located on the border between the wide Sharon Plain and the coast of Mount Carmel. Tel Mevorakh had four seasons of excavation in August and September of 1973–1975 and September 1976. The excavations were supervised by the Institute of Archaeology of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and headed by Ephraim Stern.
