Sites.
Tell esh-Shuneh.
In 1953, archeologists Henri de Contenson and James Mellaart excavated the site of Tell esh-Shuneh, overlooking the Wadi Al Arab, just outside of the city. The site was re-excavated in the 1980s by Carrie Gustavson-Gaube and again in the 1990s by Durham University. The artifacts recovered from Tell esh-Shuneh include remains of structures, pottery, and silver dating from the Chalcolithic and Early Bronze Ages. Excavations also uncovered numerous macrobotanical remains, suggesting that both Chalcolithic and Early Bronze Age settlements at the site utilized agricultural irrigation.
Shrine of Muadh ibn Jabal.
The tomb of Muadh Ibn Jabal (), a prominent Sahabah of Muhammad and compiler of the Quran, is located in Al-Shuna al-Shamalya. The tomb is noted for its pleasant, yet allegedly unexplained smell.
