The site of ongoing archaeological excavation, Tel Dor was occupied in the Early Bronze Age through the Roman/Hellenistic Period and the Byzantine Period, and was later the site of a Crusader Castle, Merle. The 2006 excavation season uncovered Iron Age and Roman/Hellenistic occupation levels.
Additionally, Tel Dor is remarkable for the use of radiocarbon dating on Iron Age remains, which has challenged the established Iron Age chronology of Israel in Near Eastern Archaeological sequences
