Mount Gilboa

King Saul and his son Jonathan died on Mount Gilboa after a battle with the Philistiens. In light of Saul and Jonathan's deaths, David cursed the mountain: "Ye mountains of Gilboa, Let there be no dew nor rain upon you, Neither fields of choice fruits; there the shield of the mighty was vilely cast away."
(Second Samuel 1:21).
