}}Wadi Jilat is a seasonal stream (wadi) in the Badia of eastern Jordan. Part of its course runs through a steeply-incised ravine that retains water for much of the year, an unusual feature in the desert region.[1]

The area is known for its archaeological significance, including a still-functioning dammed reservoir that may date back as far as the Nabataean period,[2] and thirty two prehistoric sites discovered by Andrew Garrard in the 1970s–80s.[3]

Wadi el Jilat 7, an early Neolithic archeological site {{convert|55|km|mi}} southwest of Azraq in modern-day Jordan.[4] The earliest domesticated grains of einkorn wheat known to humanity were found at this site and radiocarbon dated to 9500–9200 BP (approx. 7500–7200 BC).[5]
