Berekhat Ram
Berekhat Ram;, (also spelled Berekhet Ram, Berechat Ram Braikhat Ram, Birkat Ram, the Ram Pool or Lake Ram) is a Palaeolithic site near Mas'adah, at the foot of Mount Hermon, in the Golan Heights. It is the findspot of the Venus of Berekhat Ram, a pebble allegedly worked by Homo erectus.
Venus of Berekhat Ram
The Venus of Berekhat Ram is a pebble found at Berekhat Ram on the Golan Heights in the summer of 1981 by archaeologist N. Goren-Inbar of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. An article by Goren-Inbar and S. Peltz (1995) claims it has been modified to represent a female human figure, identifying it as a possible artefact made by Homo erectus of the later Acheulean, in the early Middle Paleolithic.
Lake Ram
Lake Ram is a crater lake in the northeastern Golan Heights, near Mount Hermon. The only sources of the lake are rain water and an underground spring. The water does not leave the lake to any other body of water. The crater is a maar. It is a Palaeolithic site of the findspot of the Venus of Berekhat Ram, a pebble allegedly worked by Homo erectus.
Battle of Panium
The Battle of Panium was fought in 200 BC between Seleucid and Ptolemaic forces as part of the Syrian Wars. The Seleucids were led by Antiochus III the Great, while the Ptolemaic army was led by Scopas of Aetolia. The Seleucids won the battle. Details of this battle are not clear, but it is known today that major factor in the Seleucid victory was that the Seleucid army used the cataphract in a decisive manner.
Tel Faher
Tel Faher (or Golani Lookout) is a former Syrian outpost in the Golan Heights that was captured by Israel in the Six-Day War in 1967. Tel Faher was the site of an intense battle between the Israel Defense Forces and the Syrians which ended in the conquest of the outpost by the Golani Brigade. Tel Faher is now a park commemorating those who died in the battle.
