Hurvat Ganim (Hebrew: חורבת גנים) is an archaeological site located near Yish'i, in the Shephelah region of Israel.[1][2][3]
The site is identified with the biblical city of Ein Gannim (Hebrew: עין גנים, sometimes Engannim) of the Tribe of Judah, not to be confused with a place of the same name belonging to Issachar, identified with modern-day Jenin.
