Central Hill and Jordan Valley: Relief Map

This relief map shows the Coastal Plain, Central Hill, and Jordan Valley in the central part of the country. Jerusalem is just off the map to the south, and Megiddo, on the edge of Galilee, is at the northern edge. In the period before the Israelite Monarchies, the Ammonites, Moabites, and Edomites lived on the other side of the Jordan Valley (past Succoth and Pehel), and the Philistines inhabited the coastal plain (labeled here as the 'Sharon Plain').
