Abstract

Abstract The Galilee is a region of complex geological structure, characterized by a high frequency of faulting and numerous other tectonic features that are dated to various periods (Freund 1978). These faulting events shaped many of the geomorphic features of the region, which is divided into two major units: the Lower Galilee (up to 600 m above mean sea level [a.m.s.l.]) and Upper Galilee (1000–1200 m a.m.s.l.); they are separated by the Beit HaKerem Valley (Biq’at Beit HaKerem) (only 150 m a.m.s.l.). The Lower Galilee is divided into three distinct geological and geomorphologic sub-units.
