Yigael Yadin did not choose Megiddo by chance. His previous excavations of the Hazor site resulted in the discovery of a similar gate. Yadin then turned to another site -- that of Gezer. This time he only went so far as to consult the report of an archaeologist who explored the site at the beginning of the 20th century. Yadin discovered a similar gate in the design for a later small fort, a gate that was similar in design and size to those of Megiddo and Hazor.
