Remains of a Second Temple-era<\/a> quarry and an early stone tool factory site were uncovered during road works on Route 437 in the West Bank, according to a Monday statement from the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT).<\/span><\/p>\n

The excavation was managed by the Staff Officer for Archaeology in the Civil Administration in Judea and Samaria, who operates under the umbrella of the Israel Antiquities Authority (IAA).<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

A similar tool production setup was found about thirty years ago in the same area, leading researchers to conclude that the region served as a center for mining and tool distribution for Jerusalem and the surrounding area.<\/span><\/p>\n

Stone tools have been discovered at almost every Second Temple-era site in the region in various forms – cups, bowls, trays, and various others.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/section>\n

The Staff Officer for Archaeology in the Civil Administration in Judea and Samaria, Benny Har-Evan said of the discovery: “The Civil Administration will continue to work day and night for the preservation of the archaeological sites and finds in Judea and Samaria<\/a>, which are part of the treasures and culture of the region.<\/span><\/p>\n

“It is a great privilege to carry out the excavations and discover an ancient and rich world under the soil of the area. We are all getting to know and glimpse a life full of culture and prestige that the area has known throughout the generations, thanks to these extraordinary discoveries.”<\/span><\/p>\n
