The Horrors of War: Safuriya-Sepphoris
Safuriya, or Sepphoris, is a small village to the northwest of Nazareth that was forcibly depopulated of Palestinians during the Catastrophe. The houses they left behind are now a chic suburb for Israelis, while the original homeowners often still wear their keys around their necks while they sit in refugee camps in Lebanon. It is also a popular spot with tourists for the archaeological ruins of Herod's recreational palace.
