Summary: | This survey report describes two well-preserved built Bedouin structures located near Ṣeʾelim in the western Negev (map 129). The condition of both structures provides information on their height, construction and the features located inside. Ethnographic data collected by Gazit indicates that the Tarabin built these structures in the 1930s when they were beginning to sedentarize. The construction of these buildings also coincides with the occupants’ cultivation of cash crops. Both buildings provide data for the study of the Negev Bedouin and the Mandate period from an archaeological perspective. |
