Korzhenkov and Mazor (2014) report that Tsafrir et al. (1988) date the destruction of a rebuilt Byzantine bathhouse to Turkish (i.e., Ottoman) times. However, no clear reference to the dating or destruction of this rebuilt bathhouse appears in Tsafrir et al. (1988), where it is only mentioned as having been examined in earlier studies of the site.

Korzhenkov and Mazor (2014) also report that they "have traced the impact of an earthquake at Turkish-British constructions" in the Bedouin village of Khalasa, built on or adjacent to the ruins of ancient Haluza. They note that "the deformations cover a large area" and suggest that "the earthquake which affected the Khalasa village would have also left traces in buildings of the same age at Rehovot-ba-Negev".

They further note that the well-house constructed during the British Mandate period was also significantly destroyed.
