Tell el-ʻAbd

settlement · 3300 BC – 850 AD

Mound site along the eastern bank of the Euphrates in northern Syria. The site shows signs of habitation from the Early Bronze Age through the Byzantine period. Tell el-ʻAbd was flooded by the construction of the Taqba Dam in 1975, though a portion of it has reemerged due to declining water levels in Lake Assad.
