About תל כודאדי

Tell Qudadi, also known as Tell esh-Shuna is an ancient site located near the mouth of the Yarkon River and Reading Power Station in the city of Tel Aviv, Israel. It was discovered in 1934 by Jacob Ory and was excavated first by P. L. O. Guy in 1937 and then by Eleazar Sukenik, Shmuel Yeivin and Nahman Avigad in 1937-1938. These revealed a fortress dated to the Iron Age, which the excavators believed was an Israelite fortress built in the 10th or 9th centuries BCE and destroyed by the Neo-Assyrian Empire in the 8th century BCE.
