Kafr Sabt
Kafr Sabt ((アラビア語:كفر سبت)) was a Palestinian Arab village of nearly 500 situated on a sloping plain in the eastern Lower Galilee located southwest of Tiberias.
==History==
While Palestine was part of the Roman Empire, Kafr Sabt was known as Kafar Shabtay.〔Khalidi, 1992, p.526.〕 Arab geographer al-Muqaddasi mentions the village in 985, while under Abbasid rule as being "between Tiberias and Ramla, situated near 'Akabah (the Pass above) Tiberias.〔al-Muqaddasi quoted in le Strange, 1890, (p.471 ).〕 He says that it belonged to Caesarea and was large, populated, and had a mosque on its main street.〔al-Muqaddasi quoted in Dabbagh, p.647. Cited in Khalidi, 1992, p.526.〕
The Crusaders called it "Cafarsset" when they conquered the Levant in the twelfth century.〔 Saladin led his Ayyubid army from the Jordan River to Kafr Sabt, approximately from his camp along the Sea of Galilee. Kafr Sabt, located on a high plateau bordering the Horns of Hattin, served as a strategic position for Saladin's army since there he could threaten Tiberias to the rear, Sepphoris in the front, the Crusader lines of communications between the two strongholds, and his army could easily retreat down the slopes if necessary.〔Lyons, 1984, p. (256 )〕 He encamped in Kafr Sabt before he led his army to their decisive victory at the Battle of Hattin.〔Lyons, 1984, p. (257 )〕〔Lyons, 1984, p. (259 ).〕 Arab geographer Yaqut al-Hamawi passed through the village in the thirteenth century while Kafr Sabt was in Ayyubid hands.〔
