جسر بنات يعقوب (بالعبرية: גשר בנות יעקב‎, إنگليزية: Daughters of Jacob Bridge)[1] هو جسر يقع على آخر مخاضة من نهر الأردن بين هضبة كورازيم في شمال إسرائيل ومرتفعات الجولان.

استخدامت المنطقة كنقطة عبور منذ آلاف السنين. وكانت جزءاً من ما أصبح يعرق حاليا بطريق البحر، وعُرف كموقع ذو أهمية استراتيجية، واستخدمه السكان والجيوش لعبور النهر، منذ فترة الفراعنة، مروراً بالآشوريين، والحثيين، والخلافة الاسلامية، والصليبيون، والأيوبيون، والمماليك، والعثمانيون، وحتى العصر الحديث.

أطلق على الموقع اسم جسر يعقوب (لاتينية: Vadum Iacob) من قبل الأوروبيين خلال الحروب الصليبية. وجرى بناء جسر حجري على يد المماليك في القرن الثالث عشر، وأطلقوا عليه اسم جسر يعقوب. في عام 1934 استبدل الجسر الذي شيده المماليك، بجسر حديث يقع جنوب بحيرة الحولة.[2] وجرى بناء الجسر المستخدم حاليا للاستخدام المدني في 2007.

وعلى مقربة من المخاضة يوجد موقع أثري مشهور يعود لـالعصر الحجري القديم ويحتوي على قطع أثرية أشولية يعود تاريخها إلى حوالي 780.000 سنة مضت.

وفي جنوب غرب الجسر الذي بناه المماليك يوجد بقايا قلعة صليبية تعرف باسم قلعة عتيرت ويوجد شرق الجسر بقايا لخان مملوكي للقوافل. ويمثل الجسر الحجري القديم المقوس الحدود الشمالية القصوى التي وصلت إليها الحملة الفرنسية على مصر والشام،[3][4]وشهدت المنطقة معركة جسر بنات يعقوب خلال الحرب العالمية الأولى.

حالياً يُعد الجسر جزءاً من الطريق السريع 91 في إسرائيل ويمتد على الحدود بين الجليل ومرتفعات الجولان. وله أهمية عسكرية استراتيجية كونه يشكل واحدة من نقاط العبور الثابتة القليلة فوق نهر الأردن العلوي والتي تتيح الوصول من مرتفعات الجولان إلى الجليل الأعلى.

التسمية

ارتبط المكان بالأساس باسم النبي يعقوب. العصر الصليبي للقديس جيمس تلقى دير الراهبات، القريب من قلعة صفد، جزءاً من الجمارك المدفوعة في المخاضة، وبما أن جاك مشتق من يعقوب، فقد أدى ذلك إلى اسم جسر بنات يعقوب[5]

قبل التاريخ

قالب:Split portion Archaeological excavations at the prehistoric Gesher Benot Ya'aqov site have revealed evidence of human habitation in the area, from as early as 750,000 years ago.[6] Archaeologists from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem claim that the site provides evidence of "advanced human behavior" half a million years earlier than has previously been estimated as possible. Their report describes a layer at the site belonging to the Acheulian (a culture dating to the Lower Palaeolithic, at the very beginning of the Stone Age), where numerous stone tools, animal bones and plant remains have been found,[7] including those of an elephant (either Palaeoloxodon recki or Palaeoloxodon antiquus),[8] which is associated with stone tools, including a handaxe, and shows cut and fracture marks indicating that it was butchered by archaic humans.[9] According to the archaeologists Paul Pettitt and Mark White, the site has produced the earliest widely accepted evidence for the use of fire, dated approximately 790,000 years ago.[10][11][12] A Tel-Aviv University study found remains of a huge carp fish cooked with the use of fire at the site 780,000 years ago.[13]

الفترة الصليبية والأيوبية

Jacob's Ford was a key river crossing point and major trade route between Acre and Damascus.[14] It was utilized by Christian Palestine and Seljuk Syria as a major intersection between the two civilizations, making it strategically important. When Humphrey II of Toron was besieged in the city of Banyas in 1157, King Baldwin III of Jerusalem was able to break the siege, only to be ambushed at Jacob's Ford in June of that year.[15]

Later in the twelfth century, Baldwin IV of Jerusalem and Saladin continually contested the area around Jacob's Ford. Baldwin allowed the Templars to build Chastelet castle overlooking Jacob's Ford known to the Arabs as Qasr al-'Ata[16] commanding the road from Quneitra to Tiberias.[17] On 23 August 1179, Saladin successfully conducted the siege of Jacob's Ford, destroying the unfinished fortification, known as the castle of Vadum Iacob or Chastellet.

In the late Mamluk period, Sefad became a principal town and Baibars' postal road from Cairo to Damascus was extended with a branch that went through the north of Palestine. To accomplish this, the bridge was built over the Crusaders' Vadum Jacob (Jacob's ford). The bridge had the Mamluk characteristic dual-slope pathway like the Yibna Bridge.[بحاجة لمصدر] Al-Dimashqi (1256–1327) noted that "the Jordan traverses the district of Al Khaitah and comes to the Jisr Ya'kub (lit. "Jacob's Bridge"), under Kasr Ya'kub (lit. "Jacob's Castle"), and reaching the Sea of Tiberias, falls into it."[18]A "jisr", bridge, during Dimashqi's lifetime cotradicts the next paragraph (and logic), that the 1st bridge was only built after the 14th century.[محل شك]

Before 1444, a merchant constructed a khan (caravanserai) on the eastern side of the bridge, one of a series of such khans built at the time.[19] Edward Robinson noted that during the 14th century, travellers crossed the river Jordan below the Lake of Tiberias, while the first crossing in the area of Jisr Benat Yakob was noted in 1450 CE. The khan, at the eastern end of the bridge, and the bridge itself, were both probably built before 1450, according to Robinson.[20]

For the year 1555−1556 CE (AH 963) the toll post at the bridge collected 25,000 akçe,[19] and in 1577 (985 H) a firman commanded that the place had post horses ready.[19]

On June 4th 1771, a combined force of Zahir al Umar's men and mamluk commander Abu al-Dhahab met the Damascene Pasha in battle, The result was a victory for the Zayadina coalition and established control of Irbid and Quneitra to Zahir al Umar. This also set in motion the later Final Invasion of Damascus Eyalet & Siege of Damascus by Abu al-Dhahab[21]

The bridge was maintained through the Ottoman period, with a caravanserai on one end of the bridge, as shown in the 1799 Jacotin map.[22] During the Egyptian campaign of 1799, Napoleon sent his cavalry commander, general Murat, to defend the bridge, as a measure of preempting reinforcement from Damascus being sent to Akko during the siege laid by the French.[23] Murat occupied nearby Safed and Tiberias, as well as the bridge[24] and, by relying on the superior quality of French troops, managed to defeat Turkish units far outnumbering him.[25] Jacotin's map marks the west side of the bridge with the name of General Murat and the date of 2 April 1799.

In 1881, the PEF's Survey of Western Palestine (SWP) also noted about Jisr Benat Yakub: "The bridge itself appears to be of later date than the Crusader period."[26]

The Battle of Jisr Benat Yakub was fought there on 27 September 1918 during the Sinai and Palestine Campaign of World War I, at the beginning of the pursuit by the British Army of the retreating remnants of the Ottoman Yildirim Army Group towards Damascus, who destroyed the central arch of the bridge. The bridge was shortly repaired by ANZAC sappers, flattening the original dual-slope pathway, making it useful for modern vehicles.[بحاجة لمصدر]

In 1934, during the draining of Lake Hula as part of a Zionist land reclamation project, the old bridge was replaced by a modern one further south.[2]What happened to the old one?[محل شك]

On the "Night of the Bridges" between 16 and 17 June 1946, the bridge[which?] was again destroyed by the Jewish Haganah. The Syrians captured the bridge on June 11, 1948, during the 1948 Palestine war, but later withdrew as a result of the 1949 Armistice Agreements between Israel and Syria. After the war, the bridge was in the central demilitarised zone established by the armistice agreement.[بحاجة لمصدر]

In 1953, the site was chosen as the original location for the water intake of the National Water Carrier of Israel, but after US pressure, the intake was moved downstream to the Sea of Galilee at Eshed Kinrot,[27] which later became known as the Sapir Pumping Station at Tel Kinrot/Tell el-'Oreimeh.[بحاجة لمصدر]

During the Six-Day War, an Israeli paratrooper brigade captured the area, and after the war, the Israeli Combat Engineering Corps constructed a Bailey bridge. In the Yom Kippur War, Syrian forces approached the vicinity of the bridge. As a precaution, Israeli sappers placed explosives on the bridge but did not detonate them as the Syrians did not attempt to cross it.[28]

القرن 21

In 2007, one of the two Bailey bridges at the site (one for traffic from east to west and the other handling traffic in the opposite direction) was replaced with a modern concrete span, while the other Bailey bridge was left intact for emergency use.
