DAAHL Site Record for Jebel Sālih [1] 18:294:

DAAHL SITE #: 343102613
FIELD / INSTITUTION #: 7–6/1, 7
SITE NAME: Jebel Sālih [1] 18:294
LATITUDE: 31.55197
LONGITUDE: 34.97168
PRIMARY REFERENCE: Israel Antiquities Authority
NOTES: (294.1.) Pottery: Intermediate Bronze (scanty finds spread over c. 5 dunams--a scatter), Iron II (numerous finds in the settlement remains, spread over c. 15 dunams similar to those of Tel Lakhish Stratum IV-II), Hellenistic (scanty finds--a scatter), Roman and Byzantine (numerous finds in the settlement remains) and Ottoman (sherds and pens--temporary occupation). The proposal to identify this site with the city of Zenan, mentioned in Joshua 15:37, is supported by the ceramic finds, the site’s location and perhaps even the similarity in the names. (294.2.) (in the burial caves). Roman and Byzantine pottery.
