SWP, 1922 data[edit]

Isn´t this the place Tuboun on SWP 5? SWP I, p 273, Palmer, 117, (from tảba: to press or stamp). 1922: p. 33. Anyone disagree? Huldra (talk) 22:53, 16 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree. Nothing appears here on mandate-era maps or PEF. More later (as you can tell, I'm too busy for WP lately). Zerotalk 04:38, 17 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, is the above Tuboun on SWP 5 what became Tiv'on, then Kiryat Tiv'on? Note Avneri, 1984, pp. 156-7: Taboun, which became Tiv'on, according to him? Huldra (talk) 23:50, 17 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
User:Zero0000: have you had time looking at this? 23:38, 18 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, Taboun became Tivon. Same location. The place where Basmat Tab'un is now is more complicated. I see a ruin "Kh. al Muzeiri'a" there, but also indications of an early 1950s settlement that doesn't appear on modern maps at all. I need to work on it more.

Ok, the early-1950s indication I see is מעברת טבעון which I think means "Tivon transit camp". It was about 500m West of current Basmat Tab'un, probably not close enough for the connection to be mentioned. I assume it was one of the transit camps for new immigrants that existed for a while.

Un-reversing Hebrew in recently-added cite.[edit]

I just put in the name of the current mayor. (This was prompted by an IP user who changed the name of the mayor, but provided no citation.) I cited the municipal web site, which says: ראש המועצה ראיד זבידאת. Of course ראש is the first word, but the words render in reverse order. If somebody could fix this it would be nice. -- M.boli (talk) 18:37, 16 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Nevermind! It looks like the {{lang}} template fixed it. -- M.boli (talk) 18:38, 16 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
