General Location Notes | the identification of Tel Yeshua with Tell el Elith is per Woudstra, Joshua (1981) (Shema), which provides "Tell es-Sa‘wī" as alternative to to the "Tell el-Elith" that appears in the referenced text--this isn’t the strongest evidence, but I can find no other reference to Tell el Elith |
