Petah Tiqva, Israel
Antipatris
Antipatris was a city built during the first century BC by Herod the Great, who named it in honour of his father, Antipater. The site, now a national park in central Israel, was inhabited from the Chalcolithic period to the Late Roman period. The remains of Antipatris are known in Modern Hebrew as Tel Afek, and in Arabic as Khulat Rās al-‘Ayn, after the nearby riverhead of the Yarkon.
