History

Tel Burga was a small fortified site strategically located between larger cities in Canaan during Middle Bronze Age in a position to support growing urban culture.[2] Archaeological surveys on site identified the remains of at least two towers and a wall. Also ceramic remains from various periods, starting with the Chalcolithic; Early, Intermediate and Middle Bronze and Iron Ages. Also Roman and Medieval artifacts were found.[1]

gollark: Perhaps, but I don't actually care.
