Sažetak
It has been five years since Andrews University started excavating Khirbet Safra in Jordan under the supervision of the Department of Antiquities of Jordan. Archaeological excavations in modern-day Jordan have increased in recent decades, providing invaluable information about ancient societies. That is especially the case with the Iron Age I. Our knowledge about that period has been updated with recent research and Khirbet Safra is one of many newly opened sites that has shared light on the subject. Although the preliminary results of the excavations have just started to get published, the authors wanted to present the current results of the excavations to promote the site among the Croatian public and interested readers. That is why this paper will bring an update on the Khirbet Safra excavations but also it will provide a preliminary report on the oven that was found in House B.2. A short analysis of the taboon type oven and its contextual analogies will bring forth a better understanding of household activities in the Iron Age I in the southern Levant.
