Nahal Be'er Sheva

The Nahal Be'er Sheva (Beersheba Stream) is a stream in southern Israel which originates just west of Tel Arad, southeast of the Yatir Forest, and is a tributary of the Besor Stream. Its tributaries are the Nahal Yatir, the Nahal Hevron and the Nahal Sakher. It is named for the city of Beersheba, the largest city on its banks. A major archeological site on its banks is Tel Be'er Sheva. It contains many archeological finds, including a Bedouin livestock market at the Well of Abraham, which the Bedouin called the Suq al-Waqef, a winepress and Byzantine-era tombs. It converges with the Besor Stream at a location known as the Mifgash (Meeting place), just southeast of Tze'elim. It rises on the Northern slope of Kina Mountain at the elevation of 570 m and flows into the Besor at the elevation of 140 m.
