At Horvat ‘Aqav in the western part of Ramat Hanadiv, remains belonging to three periods were exposed: a small Phoenician shrine, a Herodian estate manor and a Byzantine period  villa rustica. Three winepresses were found, indicating that the inhabitants of the site worked their vinyards and produced wine.

The third site, at the southern end of Ramat Hanadiv, is a field of Early Bronze Age tumuli.
