Bet Shemesh, Israel
Azekah
Azekah was an ancient town in the Shephela guarding the upper reaches of the Valley of Elah, about 26 km northwest of Hebron. The current tell by that name, also known as Tel Azekah or Tell Zakariya, has been identified with the biblical Azekah, dating back to the Canaanite period. Today, the site lies on the purlieu of Britannia Park.
