<p> (evidently a form of the Heb. '''''גַּבְעָה''''' , i.e., ''Hill;'' (See [[Gibeah]]) ), a town mentioned by Josephus, and always in connection with Ptolemais: it was destroyed by he insurgent [[Jews]] in the time of [[Florus]] ''(War,'' 2:10-3:1, '''''Γάβα''''' v.r. '''''Γάμαλα''''' and '''''Γάβαλα''''' ); it adjoined Matthew Carmel, and was called "the city of horsemen" ( '''''Πόλίς''''' '''''Ἱππέων''''' ), because those horsemen that were dismissed by Herocd dwelt there (War, 3:3, I, '''''Γαβά''''' v.r. '''''Γάμαλα''''' , '''''Γάβαλα''''' , '''''Γάβλα''''' , '''''Γαβλαά''''' ); but it was different from the [[Gibea]] ( '''''Γαβά''''' ) that lay about 20 stadia from [[Ptolemais]] ''(Life,'' 23), as this was apparently the Gibeah of Benjamin. Reland, who notices several ancient allusions to places of a similar ''Name (Palest.'' page 269), thinks that the town in question was the modern ''Haffci,'' on the shore near [[Carmel]] (q.d. '''''חיפא''''' ), the ''Sycaminus'' of later writers (see Robinson, ''Researches,'' 3:194, note), a conclusion in which Schwarz coincides ''(Palest.'' page 69, note). (See [[Gabala]]). </p>
