Tel Burna is located in the southern Shephelah in modern-day southern Israel. Work at the site has revealed remains dating to the Late Bronze II through the Persian period with peaks of activity during the Late Bronze and Iron Age IIA–B. Occupation reached its apex at the site during the Late Bronze Age, when both the summit and the lower plateau were inhabited. An impressive cultic enclosure, with numerous items related to ritual activities, dating to the Late Bronze was excavated in Area B1, on the lower platform. Excavations of the summit have exposed a well-fortified casemate wall (70 × 70 m) dating to the Iron II. This occupation is clearly related to the kingdom of Judah and it appears that Tel Burna was built as a border site between the largest cities in the region, namely, Philistine Gath and Judahite Lachish
