It has been identified in the ruins of a village about a mile from Magdala, in the little open valley of 'Ain-el-Barideh, "the cold fountain," called el-Mejdel, possibly the "Migdal-el" of Josh. 19:38. From Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary (late 1800's) [hitchcock]: Dalmanutha, a bucket; a branch
