The dates of Wadi el Jilat 7 range between 8200-7350 BC, with one old date, OxA 526 (8200-7730 BC), that does not overlap with the two younger dates OxA 527 (7680-7450 BC) and OxA 2415 (7540-7350 BC). This separation into at least two occupational phases is consistent with the stratigraphy.^[1]

Most of the dates for other areas of Wadi el Jilat (6, 13, 24) are dated to horizons later than 7000 BC. One date of Wadi el Jilat 6 (OxA 522: 11750-11530 BC) indicates occupation before the Younger Dryas.

^[1] Edwards et al. (2004) considered OxA 1799 too young.
