More about the place
Ein Samiya, the largest spring in the area between the Shomron mountains and the Jordan Valley, flows in the bed of Nahal Yitav north of Kochav HaShahar, near where the Allon Road crosses the stream. Around it are ancient remains, including a flour mill that received water via an aqueduct roughly 400 meters long. Part of the aqueduct, including a stone arch, still stands. In a burial cave in the area, an ornate silver goblet from the Bronze Age was found.
