Tell Hadar ('splendid hill') is an archaeological site on the eastern coast of the Sea of Galilee. It contains a settlement and a port. A wall, 70 metres (230 ft) across, is either of the Late Bronze Age I or Iron I. In between periods of no human presence (14th, 10th century BC), it had grown, under the control of an Aramean kingdom (possibly Geshur); a city plan, granaries, and possibly other storage facilities, were constructed. In the 9th century BC the wall was discarded. An excavation revealed two buildings sharing one wall
