The Golan is an area of Northern Israel and Syria.
The Arabic name is Jawlān(جولان). In The Bible, Golan is mentioned as a city of refuge located in Bashan: Deuteronomy 4:43, Joshua 20:8, 1 Chronicles 6:71. Nineteenth-century authors interpreted the word "Golan" (Hebrew: גולן) as meaning "something surrounded, hence a district".
Arab cartographers of the Byzantine period referred to the area as jabal (mountain), though the region is a plateau. The Muslims took over in 7th century CE. The 1906 Jewish Encyclopedia refers to the region as Gaulonitis. The name Golan Heights was not used before the 19th century.
