près deéé la Sourcee 'Ain es-‐Sitt, tertre semé de tessons attestant une occupation de 2000 à 900 avant notre ère. Tandis que de 900 à 300 la vie continuait en ce lieu qui est peut-‐ȇtre l'acropole de

Ptolémaīs à laquelle Démétrius de Magnésie réserve le nom d'Akè, le quartier maritime se

développait aux dépens du tell qui à l'époque romaine ne portait plus que le

village dit Kephar 'Acco, si l'on admet ce vocable talmudique rejeté par

Romanoff.
