:''Rehob redirects here. Rehov (also Rehob), meaning "broad", "wide place", was an important Bronze and Iron Age city located at Tel Rehov ((ヘブライ語:תל רחוב)), an archaeological site in the Jordan Valley, Israel, approximately south of Beit She'an and west of the Jordan River. The site represents one of the largest ancient city mounds in Israel, its surface area comprising in size, divided into an "Upper City" () and a "Lower City" (). The oldest known archaeological finds relating to beekeeping were discovered at Rehov.〔(Oldest known archaeological example of beekeeping discovered in Israel )〕 Rehov was a joint Israelite-Canaanite city, and had an estimated population of 2,000. ==Archaeological excavations== Archaeological excavations have been conducted at Rehov almost every year since 1997 under the directorship of Amihai Mazar, Professor at the Institute of Archaeology of the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, and with the primary sponsorship of John Camp. Rehov has emerged as a site of much archaeological importance. The Iron Age II levels of the site, in particular, have emerged as a vitally important component in the current debate regarding the chronology of the United Monarchy of Israel. Important data has also been forthcoming regarding the Early Bronze Age, Late Bronze Age and medieval occupation of the site. Mazar's site supervisors at Rehov have included Paul James Cowie (Area E), Robert Mullins (Areas A and B), Nava Panitz-Cohen (Area C), Amir Sumaqai-Fink (Area D), Dalit Weinblatt-Krauss (Area B), Adi Ziv-Esudri (Areas F and G) and Nachum Applbaum (computers and website). The burden of the work is achieved each year by students and volunteers from universities and colleges in Israel, the United States, Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom and several other countries. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rehov」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
