A huge amazing cave with a lot of stories and history
Caves from the Canaanite, Roman, Byzantine, and Islamic eras
Tur Bedo, in the olive groves between Khirbet al-Kum and the village of Idhna, is an ideal example of cave.
The echo of «al-Tur» resonates as a stage indicating the invasions throughout history of the plundering tribes over the sovereignty of lands belonging to another tribe, their seizure and the transfer of power and authority to them within bloody events, and «Tur Rabud» whose features have ceased to exist and where the king and priests were imprisoned.
The tribe inhabiting it was from the people of the giants in the great cave outside the walls of the city and their extermination until the overthrow of government from one tribe to another in “Al-Tur” became a mythical presence in the Palestinian novel, which echoes in the novels of “Beit Ula”, and we hear it as poetry about the tragedy of the Asafarah tribe in Bayt Jibrin.
