The Bizat Ruhama site in the Northern Negev, Israel, has been first excavated in 1996. But geological observation of this site section began in 1995. The results obtained by geological and geophysical methods are discussed in this paper. New paleoma- gnetic data permit to date the cultural layer at Bizat Ruhama at the Matuyama epoch (0,85-0,99 My). Artifacts that belong to the Matuyama epoch differ from the others by their small sizes.
