Ein el-Jarba is a two-period settlement with remains dating to the Early Chalcolithic (6th millennium BC) and the Early Bronze Age IB (4th millennium BC). The Early Chalcolithic settlement is ascribed to the Wadi Rabah culture. The site is located in the Jezreel Valley, ca. 20 km south-east of Haifa, Israel.
