Exceptional detective-archaeological work at the first season of archaeological digs at Tel Shikmona, on the southern edge of Israel's city of Haifa, has uncovered the remains of a house dating back to the period of the Kingdom of Israel. Upon re-exposing the structure, archaeologists were amazed to find that it had remained well preserved and is in fact one of the best-preserved "Four-Room House" dating back to that period known today.
