A Late Bronze Age (1500–1400 B.C.) temple has been discovered at Tall al-’Umayri, Jordan. The find, at one of very few settled sites from that time in the central hills of Jordan, lends support to the belief that the area was more heavily settled than was previously thought. The structure’s unusually well-preserved state and its cultic function make it an even rarer find. The discovery was described by its excavators, Larry G. Herr and Douglas L. Clark, in the Daily Star, a Beirut-based newspaper.
