Includes 168 b/w figures and 10 tables. Following the annexation of
Samaria by Sargon II, around 700 BC, a new settlement was
established just south of the urban center at Tel Dor. The site,
known as Krokodeilon Polis "Crocodile City" to the Greeks (modern
Tel Tanninim), was excavated from 1996 to 1999 by the Tanninim
Archaeological Project, revealing significant Persian and
Hellenistic period remains. Located on the Crocodile River in the
Sharon Plain in Israel, this fishing village experienced something
of a renaissance in the Late Byzantine period (450-640 AD),
boasting several fresh water fishponds supplied by the Caesarea
Maritima aqueduct and a large basilica church atop its mound. The
site continued to be occupied sporadically through the Ottoman
period. This volume is a final report of the excavations at this
important site.
