Abstract
This study aims to shed light on a group of archaeological artifacts in the As-Salt Archaeological Museum found during an archaeological excavation in Tell Al-Jādūr.
The most important result of this study is that the pottery found in Tell Al-Jādūr belongs to the EBIV, specifically to the Amman-Zarqa family.
As a result, a new site can be added to the sites of the Amman-Zarqa pottery family.
