Syrian Tell
Syrian Tell submitted by AlexHunger : Unexcavated Tell, or mound from numerous layers of habitations. Only a fraction of Tells in Syria are excavated. The Syrian Governments puts a marker on them and attempts to keep looters away. Most major archeological sites in the region started like this. In Turkey they are called Tepe or Hoyuk.

Ancient Village or Settlement in Syria

Standard Syrien Tell, as in the rest of the region. Over generations of habitation, settlements tended to grow in altitude as and when old structures, mostly mud brick, were destroyed and built over. This mound has a government marker, but has otherwise not been excavated yet.
The first explorers found old cities by sheer luck or when a farmer's plow hit a statue. For the purpose of illustration.
In Turkish, they are called either Tepe or Hoyuk. 290 Meters Altitude at base.
