Aharoni, “Nothing Early and Nothing Late,” p. 73. Most of the MB II enclosure at Tel Masos was destroyed by erosion, and only 18th-century B.C. pottery was found. We are assuming that occupation continued to the end of MB II, as at Tel Malhata, but the three seasons of excavation in the 1970s admittedly produced no evidence for this.
