Various issues

[edit]

The below citation,

  • C. R. Conder and H. H. Kitchener (1881). The Survey of Western Palestine. Vol. I. London: The Committee of the Palestine Exploration Fund. p. 272.

..ie p. 272 doesn't have anything to do with this place, does it? Thats about Shefa-'Amr, Huldra (talk) 20:52, 2 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

User:Zero0000, you added the Conder and Kitchener ref here, I still don't understand it? Huldra (talk) 20:47, 3 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Identification with Gan Daphna in Exodus by Leon Uris

[edit]

I am not sure the identification with the fictional kibbutz Gan Daphna in "Exodus" by Leon Uris is entirely correct. In the novel, the name derives from the death of a young woman, as is also suggested here for the actual kibbutz, but the fictional Gan Daphna is located on a mountain as explained on this Talk page, which this kibbutz is not. Perhaps the identification with the fictional Gan Daphna should be limited to the name.
