Tel Qashish/Tell el-Qassis from west
Tel Qashish, also spelled Tel Kashish (Hebrew: תל קשיש) or Tell el-Qassis in Arabic,[1] is a tell (ancient mound) in the northwestern Jezreel Valley, on the north bank of the Kishon River. The ancient settlement at Tel Qashish is believed to be a satellite of the nearby city of Yokneam, located about 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) south.
Archaeologist Yohanan Aharoni proposed that the site corresponds to "Helkath", one of the 119 cities conquered by Pharaoh Thutmose III. However, other scholars suggest it may be identified with "Dabeshet" mentioned in the Book of Joshua.[2] Adjacent to the mound is Ein Qashish, a spring with evidence of prehistorical human activity dating back to the Middle Palaeolithic period.[3]
