Khirbat Khudash is an archaeological site in the West Bank, located within the Israeli settlement of Beit Aryeh-Ofarim, next to the Palestinian village of Al-Lubban al-Gharbi. It comprises small, planned and fortified site dating to the Iron Age IIB, notable for its numerous oil presses. The site is located today within. It was first identified during a survey of the southwestern Samaria Highlands carried out by David Eitam in the 1970s and was excavated in the 1990s under the supervision of Shimon Riklin. The Iron Age IIB period (late 9th–8th centuries BCE) is considered a time of prosperity in the Northern Kingdom of Israel, which came to an end with the kingdom's destruction in 720 BCE. Khirbat Khudash is located next to Khirbat Banat Barr, which was likely a regional royal Israelite and identified with a biblical town named Zereda, in the territory of the Tribe of Ephraim, mentioned in 1 Kings 11: 26-28. Three other industrial sites from the Iron Age II exist in its vicinity: Qla', Khirbat Deir Daqla and Kurnet Bir et-Tell. The rest of the sites in the region are rural in their nature. The site was likely abandoned some during the Assyrian campaigns against Israel in the 720s BCE. This type of sites was understood by scholars such as Avraham Faust and Haya Katz as local initiatives. Its numerous oil presses suggest that production was intended for large-scale surplus rather than solely for domestic consumption. David Eitam asserts that it was a royal production center, belonging to the Northern Kingdom of Israel, used for international trade.
