Halhul
Halhul (アラビア語:حلحول), transliteration: ''Ḥalḥūl'', is a Palestinian city located in the southern West Bank, north of Hebron in the Hebron Governorate. The town, bordered by Sa'ir and Ash-Shuyukh to the east, Beit Ummar and Al-Arroub refugee camp to the north, and Kharas and Nuba westwards,〔('Halhul' ), ARIJ, 2000.〕 is located 916 m above sea level, and is the highest inhabited place in Palestine.〔 According to the Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics, the city had a population of 22,108 mostly Muslim inhabitants in 2007.〔(2007 PCBS Census ) Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics. p.118.〕
According to Jewish, Christian and Muslim medieval traditions, the graves of the biblical prophets Gad and Nathan are located in Halhul. Another Muslim tradition places Jonah's grave in the town. The burial sites, formerly designated in the list of Holy Places under Israeli rule, are now under the Palestinian Authority.
The Israeli settlement Karmei Tzur lies on the outskirts of Halhul.〔Pekka Pitkänen, (''Joshua,'' ) InterVarsity Press, 2010 p. 296.〕 Halhul is surrounded by ancient burial caves.
