== Ancient site of Tel Yizhaki == Several kilometers to the southwest, lies an unexcavated tell named Tel Yizhaki or Hurvat Izhaqia. Among the discoveries at this site is a column base featuring an Aramaic inscription in Hebrew script, mentioning a donor named "Yudah son of Sardah". It is believed that the inscription was part of an ancient synagogue.<ref>{{Citation |title=CXXIX. Ḥ.
