This is the excavation group I was with in Israel. 
This is what we uncovered.  It's the bottom of a spiral staircase.  Only Crusaders used the feature, and since the base of the structure  was small, we assumed it was once a tower.  The structure is only 1000 years old.
We found this Islamic Lamp in the rubble of the stairs.  We were suprised to see it in such good shape.  I rubbed it to get my 3 wishes.  Sadly, there was no genie.  That lamp had to be laying in the sand for 1000 years.  Amazing!!
