Oron (field photography), with the assistance of Y. Alamor (administration), E. Aladjem (surveying and aerial photography), J. Roskin ( Optically Stimulated Luminescence [ OSL] sampling), I. Azulay (drafting) and S. Talis (guidance). Youth groups from Dimona and volunteers participated in the excavations.
