They counted the beads but the “The area was a village from about 5100 B.C. to 4600 B.C., and was first discovered in A.D. 1950, with digs taking place from the end of the 1970s up to the present day” is just an estimate. Never mind, my “there you go again with the date” will not be accepted. Actually, this article was close to the truth, but not close enough. These writers should just admit they really don't know what the date was and leave it at that.

Yosef Garfinkel did a lot of the work at this site and the dating was probably based on his work. He is very conservative and highly respected. I follow his work very closely and I am using it for my own master’s in the chalcolithic period in the Levant. The dating range is probably accurate, but it is only hand grenade close...
