Shimron, Archaeological tell in Northern District, Israel
Tel Shimron rises above the Jezreel Valley landscape, forming a prominent hill with archaeological remains visible across multiple settlement layers.
The site contains evidence of continuous habitation from the Neolithic period through various civilizations, including Canaanite, Israelite, and Roman periods.
Excavations at Tel Shimron have revealed ritual baths, pottery collections, and architectural elements that show the daily practices of ancient Jewish communities.
