recent falcification[edit]

This edit [1] by 93.173.113.243, done 13 May 2009, makes it look as if the "info" is sourced to Khalidi, 1992. Which it is not. Khalidi does not mention anything about "Greek-speaking Jews" or "mishnaic and talmudic sources." Grrr! I *really* hate it when people falcify sources this way......

No need to jump to conclusions. I wouldn't expect an anonymous editor to know what those weird "ref" tags even do. In any case, the content addition was correct, and I'm going to source it. —Ynhockey (Talk) 22:34, 17 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Not sure about "Greek speaking", but otherwise it is correct. However, given a gap of 1400-1500 years, "established on the remains of" is dubious language (even though Khalidi uses it). Zerotalk 23:37, 26 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Guerin 1870-visit[edit]

From what I get from translate.google, Guérin writes here (from his 1875-visit) on p. 309 that he also saw the place in 1870. Now, that should have been in one of the "Samarie" -books. Alas, I´ve looked and looked...and cannot find it there. Cheers, Huldra (talk) 20:48, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There is a Tell es_Semak on p274 of Samarie 2. Is that it? Zerotalk 22:30, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Nope, that is Tell es Semak by the sea, at Haifa, on map SWP V: see SWP I, p. 352 -353. Huldra (talk) 22:42, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
