Tel Rumeida (Template:Lang-he) is the site of a Jewish Israeli settlement and a number of Palestinian houses and families as well. In proximity is an Israeli military base.
According to Ehud Sprinzak, an Israeli counterterrorism specialist and expert in far-right Jewish groups, the hill was settled by "a small number of very radical Jewish families" in 1986. The most well known resident is Baruch Marzel, a right-wing activist and head of the Jewish National Front, who lives there with his family. The international community considers Israeli settlements in the West Bank illegal under international law, but the Israeli government disputes this.
Some Jewish scholars argue that the tell is the location of biblical Hebron.
The occupational sequence at Tell Rumeida is very similar to those uncovered in Jerusalem. During the Early Bronze III and Middle Bronze II periods, there was a fortified city at the site. No Late Bronze Age, Iron Age I or IIA cities have been found there. Above the EBIII and MBII fortified city are 8th century BCE four room houses. Fragments of jars and burnished vessels may suggest that there was a small-scale occupation.
