ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS 118 Acknowledgements Acknowledgements 119 Acknowledgements This important project was carried out in Israel because of the special nature of the topic, namely, studying Holocaust related issues. The complexity of the project called for collaborative work between Dutch and Israeli scholars and I wish to convey my gratitude to all of them. I would like to thank my Israeli research assistants Tali Grossman, Yamit Ophir Goldstein and Sigal Haimovich for their dedicated and sensitive involvement in this project. My special thanks are conveyed to Dr. Sarit Alkalay for her invaluable contribution to this study. Also, I owe special thanks to my partner Eran and my family and friends for their patience, motivation and love during a challenging time that not always enabled me to give them my full attention. Last but not least, my deepest appreciation to the Holocaust child survivors and their offspring for participating in this study, which required them to address some of their most dreadful life events. They have been helping us for so many years and we owe them a special tribute. 120 Acknowledgements CURRICULUM VITAE 120 Curriculum Vitae Curriculum Vitae 123 Ayala Fridman Ayala Fridman was born September 13, 1976 in Eilat, Israel.

  • A Guide to Birding in Israel & Trip Report for 25 April – 5 May 2019
    A Guide to Birding in Israel & Trip Report for 25th April – 5th May 2019 Trip Report author: Steve Arlow [email protected] Blog for further images: https://stevearlowsbirding.blogspot.com/ Purpose of this Trip Report / Guide I have visited Israel numerous times since spring since 2012 and have produced birding trip reports for each of those visits however for this report I have collated all of my previous useful information and detail, regardless if they were visited this year or not. Those sites not visited this time around are indicated within the following text. However, if you want to see the individual trip reports the below are detailed in Cloudbirders. March 2012 March 2013 April – May 2014 March 2016 April – May 2016 March 2017 April – May 2018 Summary of the Trip This year’s trip in late April into early May was not my first choice for dates, not even my second but it delivered on two key target species. Originally I had wanted to visit from mid-April to catch the Levant Sparrowhawk migration that I have missed so many previous times before however this coincided with Passover holidays in Israel and accommodation was either not available (Lotan) or bonkersly expensive (Eilat) plus the car rental prices were through the roof and there would be holiday makers everywhere. I decided then to return in March and planned to take in the Hula (for the Crane spectacle), Mt. Hermon, the Golan, the Beit She’an Valley, the Dead Sea, Arava and Negev as an all-rounder. However I had to cancel the day I was due to travel as an issue arose at home that I just had to be there for.

  • Israel Trail
    Hillel Sussman he Israel Bike Trail is a national project for the construction of a mountain bike trail that traverses the entire country from the northernmost and highest point in Israel - TMount Hermon - to the lowest point on earth - the Dead Sea, and to the southernmost point - the city of Eilat on the shores of the Red Sea. Imagine that in just a few short years, you'll be able to hop on your bike on Mount Hermon and pedal away until you reach Eilat. The project is led by the Israel Nature Pedal your way to an appreciation of Israel’s landscapes and history and Parks Authority with financial support The Israel Bike Trail from the Ministry of Tourism and the Israel Government Tourist Corporation as well as other government ministries, including the Ministry of Environmental Protection and the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development. The concept is that anyone who bikes the trail will learn about the diverse landscapes and cultures of Israel. In planning the trail, we have attempted to connect to as many important tourist sites as possible into a single contiguous trail. The trail is planned to extend over 1,200 kilometers (approximately 750 miles), making it one of the longest trails in the world, and perhaps the most beautiful and diverse. To create the trail, teams are currently deployed throughout Israel, seeking the best possible routes. The trail is being constructed with the highest possible mountain biking trail standards. Parts of it are being built by volunteers and others by professional trail builders. We set several principles for the planning phase: • Rider services - Each day begins and ends at a place where riders can sleep, eat and, if necessary, have their bikes repaired.

  • 403 Ancient Water Management in The
    ARAM, 13-14 (2001-2002), 403-421 U. AVNER 403 ANCIENT WATER MANAGEMENT IN THE SOUTHERN NEGEV UZI AVNER INTRODUCTION The southern Negev is an extremely arid area, with summer temperatures above 400C, an average annual precipitation of 28 mm, and an annual potential evaporation rate of 4000 mm. This negative water balance causes the area to be poor in water sources and limits the Saharo-Arabian vegetation almost to- tally to wadi beds. Certainly, the desert presents several obstacles to the devel- opment of human communities, the foremost of which is the scarcity of water, for drinking, for everyday uses, for animals and for agriculture. Considering the environmental conditions, one would expect the Southern Negev to be al- most devoid of ancient remains of human presence and activity. However, the harshest part of this area, from ‘Uvda Valley and southward (see Map 1), is surprisingly rich in archaeological sites. A complete sequence of settlement is found during the last 10,000 years, with a wide range of activi- ties such as hunting, grazing, agriculture, trade, copper production, some gold production and others (Avner et al 1994). In this article I will describe several methods of water exploitation in the region. The first will concern the early agricultural settlement in ‘Uvda Valley, 6th to 3rd millennia B.C., the others relate to the Nabatean and the Early Islamic period. AGRICULTURAL SETTLEMENT IN ‘UVDA VALLEY ‘Uvda Valley (Wadi ‘Uqfi in Arabic), 40 km north of the Gulf of Aqaba (Fig. 1), was first briefly described by A. Musil (1907:180-182, 1926:85).

  • Historical Assessment of the Transformation of Kibbutzim of Israel's
    Historical Assessment of the Transformation of Kibbutzim of Israel’s Southern Arava By: Morgan E. Reisinger Project Advisors: Professor Bland Addison Professor Peter Hansen April 2019 A Major Qualifying Project submitted to the faculty of Worcester Polytechnic Institute in partial fulfilment of the requirement for degrees of Bachelor of Science This report represents work of WPI undergraduate learners submitted to the faculty as evidence of a degree requirement. WPI routinely publishes these reports on its web site without editorial or peer review. For more information about the projects program at WPI, see https://www.wpi.edu/project-based-learning Abstract Kibbutzim of Israel are utopia-driven communal settlements that spearheaded the return of Zionist Jews to Palestine in the early 1900s. Traditional kibbutzim are completely collective, meaning everything is shared equally, but make up roughly 10% of Israel’s 270 current kibbutzim. Political and financial crises compounded throughout the end of the twentieth century to initiate widespread privatization throughout Israeli kibbutzim. The purpose of this project was to assess degree to which the kibbutzim of the southern Arava transformed individually and collectively. ii Table of Contents Abstract ...................................................................................................................................................... ii Introduction ..................................................................................................................................................

  • Roman Roads, Physical Remains, Organization and Development
    Roman Roads, Physical Remains, Organization and Development Benjamin Isaac ‘Milestones, they are more numerous than needed’, according to Sir Ronald Syme, ‘They may tell very little, often merely certifying stages and intervals on roads already known, traced and trodden: or, less instructive, the names and titles of an emperor. There are happy exceptions.’1 Syme then proceeds to give two examples of such happy exceptions, both from Judaea. The first is a milestone of AD 69, marking the earliest known Roman road in the province, from Caesarea-on-the-Sea to Scythopolis (Beth Shean) and bearing the titles of Vespasian as newly declared Emperor and of the commander of the Legio X Fretensis, Marcus Ulpius Traianus, father of the future Emperor Trajan.2 Then he focuses on discussion of what is now known to have been one of two identical milestones, dated between 72 and 79, both found in the excavations near the Temple Mount in Jerusalem.3 Syme’s interest in these inscriptions focused on the appearance of Traianus in 69 in Judaea on the first milestone, and on the identity of the provincial governor, whose name was erased on both milestones from Jerusalem. It would be of general interest to know the identity of a senatorial official in the seventies, who got in so much trouble that his name was removed from imperial monuments. There is more, however. These milestones are the earliest discovered on the territory of the Province of Judaea. In other words, during the period when Judaea formed a sub- unit of the Province of Syria, administered by equestrian officials, the road-system of Judaea was not marked by inscribed milestones.

While some of these playas are terminal, others were found to be not absolutely terminal, allowing, under extreme floods, the outlet of water from their beds to a draining, ephemeral channel. Indicators for ancient to recent-past agricultural practicing were recorded for two playas. In one of them, this included the archaeological remains of seven Byzantine-Age stone terraces across the playa bed, indicating ancient runoff harvesting agriculture. In another playa, the agricultural indicator included observations by key informants who reported the cropping of barley and wheat by Bedouin populations until the mid-1990s. This was supported by rare bibliographic sources, reporting the cropping of cereals at this site by Bedouins during the 1930s and 1940s. Agro-hydrological assessments of seven playas and their catchments were conducted, revealing a marginal agronomic potential under the current climatic conditions and only for a small number of them. The results highlight the profound environmental know-how of local populations that inhabited this harsh region.
