Summary

The 2010 excavation at Tel Hazor, part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site 'Biblical Tels - Megiddo, Hazor, Beer Sheva,' revealed significant archaeological insights into one of Israel's largest and most strategically important ancient cities. Conducted by a team led by A. Ben-Tor and S. Zuckerman, this season focused on Area M, employing advanced surveying, restoration, and preservation techniques. The excavation involved international collaboration, including students and volunteers from multiple countries, and was supported by institutions such as the Selz Foundation and the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. Key findings likely included further clarification of Hazor's urban planning, fortifications, or cultural layers, contributing to our understanding of its role in the Bronze Age and biblical history.
