This is a list of archaeological sites in the Republic of Lebanon.
There are many tells in Lebanon – artificial mounds formed from the accumulated refuse of people living on the same site for hundreds or thousands of years. A classic tell looks like a low, truncated cone with sloping sides [1] and can be up to 30 metres high. [2] Tells are most commonly associated with the archaeology of the ancient Near East, but they are also found elsewhere, such as Central Asia, Eastern Europe, [3] West Africa [4] and Greece. [5] [6] Within the Near East, they are concentrated in less arid regions, including Upper Mesopotamia, the Southern Levant, Anatolia and Iran. [2]
