Description

Local Council Bet Jann is situated on ha'Ari and Miron Mounts in the Upper Galilee, 15 km NE to Karmiel, and is probably the highest (ASL) local authority in Israel. Established in the 11th century and a Local Council since 1964. Pop: 8,800, all Druze. In my visit to this beautiful mountainous village I spotted various municipal flags:

  • green emblem on red-orange field, no inscription
  • red emblem on yellow field, no inscription
  • yellow emblem on green field, no inscription
  • green emblem on white field, Hebrew inscription above and Arabic inscription below
The municipal emblem was published in the official gazette (Rashumot), 'Publications Gazette' section (Yalkut ha'Pirsumim), YP 1396, 28 September 1967. Source: author's own observation, 2 October 2001.
