During February 2004, an excavation was conducted in the village of Sandala (Permit No. A-4118*; map ref. NIG 2300–10/7140–50; OIG 1800–10/2140–50), prior to construction. The excavation, on behalf of the Israel Antiquities Authority, was directed by A. Mokary, with the participation of laborers provided by the contractor. |
The excavation area was located in the nucleus of the ancient village, near the mosque. A square was opened and a layer of fill (5–10 cm) was excavated down to bedrock. No building remains were found (Fig. 1) and the finds included a few fragments of pottery vessels that dated to the Early Islamic and the Mamluk periods. |
