SOME years ago, hard limestones containing corals were discovered cropping out in the railway cutting at Km. 65 near Tulkarem. These contain various coral types, but it was found impossible to determine their age. Since that time, reef limestones with abundant calcareous algae (Lithothamnium) and Hydrocorallines of the Millepora group have been found in various localities and are the first Miocene rocks to be recorded from Palestine.
