Kfar HaHoresh (, ''lit.'' village of the thicket) is a kibbutz in northern Israel. Located near Nazareth, it falls under the jurisdiction of Jezreel Valley Regional Council. In 2006 Kfar HaHoresh had a population of 423. The kibbutz was established in 1933 by members of the Gordonia youth movement who had previously been living in Ness Ziona. The land had been bought by the Jewish National Fund in 1930. An important Pre-Pottery Neolithic B site in the vicinity of the kibbutz is under excavation since early 1990s by an expedition of Hebrew University of Jerusalem directed by Professor Nigel Goring-Morris. According to the excavator, the site represents a regional funerary center.〔(The 2007–8 excavation seasons at Pre-Pottery Neolithic B Kfar HaHoresh, Israel )〕The site is associated with the Neolithic transition. 〔(New fieldwork at Shuqba Cave and in Wadi en-Natuf, Western Judea )〕 The kibbutz fielded a football team, which competed in the second division in 1949–50. The team finished eighth in the league's North division. Today the kibbutz has been privatized. The Arabic-language radio station ''Radio A-Shams'' broadcasts from the kibbutz. ==Notable residents== *Ephraim Kishon 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kfar HaHoresh」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
