Nearby were the ruins of the capital of Israel that King Omri had built on a hill ten kilometres north-west of Nablus. He had bought the hill for two talents of silver from a man named Shemer, which gave rise to the name Samaria. The people of Samaria burned one of the Persian governors alive, and Alexander the Great visited the city, executed the murderers, settled a colony of 6,000 Macedonians there, and expelled most of the inhabitants. But some of the Samaritans survived and erected a temple on nearby Mount Gerizim, where they were still holding an annual religious ceremony, including the slaughtering of a goat, when I was there. When I visited the patriarch of the Samaritan sect at a tiny shrine in Nablus town, he was wearing a green turban wrapped around his red tarbush, a long straggling beard and a flowing brown cloak. He showed me the religious scrolls of the sect, kept in an ornately jewelled case, which were to be taken up to the top of Mount Gerizim for the period of their annual ceremonies. The ancient track up the mountain was barely passable but we were able to send up a police guard to see that the ceremonies were not disrupted and to ensure that these priceless artifacts were well secured. Nablus was the administrative capital of the District of Samaria, boasting a District Officer, a District Police Headquarters, a rural police station, which was entirely mounted, a district jail, and an urban police station housing British and Arab members of the Palestine Police. I was posted to Nablus Urban, which was located in a poor tactical position at the foot of the steep slopes of the cursed Mount Ebal (Deuteronomy xi.29). The station was surrounded by a fenced perimeter with a sandbagged post known as a sangar at the entrance to the compound. Nablus itself is in a valley with the blessed Mount Gerizim (Deuteronomy again) rising behind it, and was fervently Moslem. cont. http://landofbrokenpromises.co.uk/Palestine/Howard.html ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
