History

Tell Zenoub is also an archaeological site of the Qaraoun culture that is located {{convert|4|km|mi}} north northeast of Joub Jannine, Lebanon. Although later occupation was detected, numerous Heavy Neolithic flints were found in fields south of the tell.{{cite book|last=Moore|first=A.M.T.|title=The Neolithic of the Levant|publisher=Oxford University, Unpublished Ph.D. Thesis|year=1978|pages=444–446|url=http://ancientneareast.tripod.com/185.html}}{{cite book|author1=L.

In 1838, Eli Smith noted Tell Zenoub as being a village in the Beqaa Valley.Robinson and Smith, 1841, vol 3, 2nd appendix, p. [https://archive.org/stream/biblicalresearch03robiuoft#page/142/mode/1up 142]
