Local Council Tuba-Zangariyye is situated in the Upper
Galilee, east of Rosh Pina . Est.
1903, achieved Local Council status in 1988. Population 4,500,
all of them Bedouins from Arab El-Heib tribe.
In my visit on 18 September 2001 I saw a white flag with the
emblem in natural colors and no inscription. The municipal emblem
was published in the official gazette (Rashumot, Yalkut
HaPirsumim), YP 4040, 10 September 1992. There is a small
emblem at this
webpage so I used the one in the gazette. I made it blue but
on the flag it is in natural colours.
Dov Gutterman, 22 September and 30 October 2001
Founded as a temporary tent encampment near Ein Tuba
(Tuba Spring), and until the 1960' most of its population still
lived in tents.
Before the Independence war, the Bedouins of this village decided
to have an alliance with the HaHagana and some of them
even joined the PALMAH, the HaHagana elite force, and
had their own unit known as Pal-Heib. They took part in
the defence of Jewish settlements in the Upper Galilee.
