The community is named "Ramot Naftali" (hills of Naftali) because it is located in the mountains of Naftali, which was originally in the land owned by the Tribe of Naphtali.
History
The community was founded in 1945 by a group of agricultural workers called "Bnei Peled" who were sent by national agencies to guard the land and prepare it for agriculture. After the end of World War II arrived the first group of discharged soldiers from two groups, "Wingate" and "HaMitnadev", who organized for settlement before they had joined the army.
The community was built around the fortress of Ramot Naftali, which was established together with the fortresses Biria and Hukok in 1945 as part of the defense of the British army in northern Israel, and in collaboration with the Jewish Agency. The fortresses were built by the construction company Solel Boneh. The fortress today is part of a nearby army base, and it is used for guard-watching.
Ramot (Hebrew: רָמוֹת, lit. Heights), also known as Ramot Alon (Hebrew:רמות אלון), is a large neighborhood in a northern part of East Jerusalem. Ramot is one of Jerusalem's Ring Neighborhoods. The land was annexed by Israel after the Six-Day War, though that annexation has not been recognized internationally. As part of Ramot was established in East Jerusalem, the international community considers it an Israeli settlement. The international community considers Israeli settlements in East Jerusalem illegal under international law, but the Israeli government disputes this.
History
Ramot is named after the biblical city of Rama, where the Prophet Samuel lived and was brought for burial: Now Samuel had died, and all Israel lamented him, and buried him in Ramah, and (each one lamented him) in his own city. (Samuel I, 28:3). According to tradition, Rama was situated on one of the highest peaks of the Judean Hills, 885 meters above sea level. The Tomb of Samuel is located 1.3 kilometers north of Ramot, next to the Arab village Nabi Samwil.
The community is located on a small hill, which is the lowest step on the slope that falls from the Golan Heights to the Sea of Galilee, about 10 meters (33ft)below sea level (compared to the Sea of Galilee which is about 210 meters (690ft) below sea level). The community is 2 kilometers (1.2mi) east of the Sea of Galilee and 7 kilometers (4.3mi) north of Ein Gev.
History
The moshav was founded in 1969, when Golan area was a part of the Israeli Military Governorate. In 1981, the area of Golan was unilaterally annexed by Israel, applying Israeli civil rule on the area. The founders first lived in the houses of the abandoned village of Skopye, and then settled two years later to temporary "triangle houses" in what is now the Ramot recreation village. In 1973, they resettled in the moshav's current location. The moshav is a member of the Moshavim Movement.
