Excerpt: Ein Feshkha (Hebrew: Einot Tzukim ) is a site of archaeological interest situated on the northwestern shore of the Dead Sea about three kilometers south of Qumran in Israel . It is named after the spring of brackish water found nearby. With interest in Qumran at its height one room of the building was excavated by Roland de Vaux of the Ecole Biblique in 1956 and a full excavation of the site was carried out in 1958. Hirschfeld excavated the site in 2001. The spring at Ein Feshkha is now located 100 meters south of the main building and at least 3 meters lower. In ancient times a spring, now dried up, just north of the main building supplied water. This ancient spring being several meters higher suggests that it was sweet, not brackish. The complex is composed of a main building (24m by 18m) with central courtyard, an industrial installation with two plastered basins to its north-east and what appear to be stables to its west. De Vaux showed that the Ein Feshkha complex was contemporary with the settlement at Qumran and theorized that they were inhabited by the same community. The main building may reflect the same layout as the main building at Qumran, though on a smaller scale. Its orientation is also the same. The entrance was through two doors, side-by-side, to the east. There is a staircase in the south-east corner of the building, showing that there was an upper story at least on the west side. Water was important to the industrial installation as a channel brings water from the spring through the wall to the north into a small rectangular tank...
