Givat Titura Archaeological Garden In the early 1990s, accelerated development began in the Modi’in area, following which the city of Modi’in was built. During these years dozens of archeological excavations and surveys were conducted that revealed the history of the area, from the Early Neolithic period (tenth millennium BCE) to the present day. The archeological garden displays agricultural installations and architectural items discovered in excavations conducted at Givat Hatitora and in the vicinity of Modi’in. These findings indicate the uniqueness and importance of the area in the history of the Land of Israel, especially during the Iron Age and the Second Temple period. Remains of an agricultural area were exposed in Givat Hatitora - farms with a family and industrial character, adapted to the conditions of the area, as well as hiding places, cemeteries, quarries, installations, cisterns and an ancient road.
