  • Tell Begum is a tell, or archaeological settlement mound, in Iraq. It is located near Said Sadiq in the Shahrizor Plain in Iraqi Kurdistan. The archaeological site consists of a steep conical mound 9 metres (30 ft) high, and a lower mound. It covers an area of 5 hectares (12 acres). The site was first investigated in 1960 by a team of Iraqi archaeologists. In 2013, a new excavation was carried out by archaeologists from Leiden University. This project restudied the older excavations and also conducted limited new excavations. The oldest excavated layers date to Late Halaf period. After an apparent hiatus in occupation, the site was resettled in the Late Chalcolithic 1 (LC1) period and continued to be in use into the Late Chalcolithic 3 (LC3) period (4300-3600 BC). Medieval occupation has also been attested. (en)
  • Tell Begum is een tell (een archeologische nederzettingsheuvel) in Irak. De tell ligt in de in Iraaks Koerdistan. De archeologische vindplaats bestaat uit een steile, conische tell van 9 m hoog, met een lagere extensie. De totale oppervlakte bedraagt 5 ha. De vindplaats werd voor het eerst onderzocht in 1960 door Iraakse archeologen. In 2013 voerden archeologen van de Universiteit Leiden een nieuwe opgraving uit. Dit project bestudeerde de oude Iraakse opgraving, en voerde op beperkte schaal nieuwe opgravingen uit. De oudste lagen stammen uit de Late Halaf periode. Na een onderbreking in de bewoning, wordt de site weer gebruikt in de late kopertijd (Laat-Chalcolithisch 1 tot Laat-Chalcolithisch 3, 4300-3600 v.Chr.). Er zijn ook sporen van Middeleeuwse bewoning aangetroffen. (nl)
