Negev (English spelling)

Japanese: ネゲブ(英語表記)Negev
Negev (English spelling)
The southern region of Israel that stretches from the Sinai Peninsula is generally a dry desert area. In the north, which stretches to the Mediterranean coastal plain, is the central city of Be'er Sheba. In the central region, a folded mountain range extends from the Sinai Peninsula, containing various mineral resources that are being developed. In the south, a desolate desert stretches all the way to the Gulf of Aqaba. Eilat, at the southern end, is a strategically important port as Israel's only outlet to the Red Sea. Irrigation canals extend from Lake Tiberias and the Yarkon River to the Negev, and agricultural development is underway. There is also an oil pipeline between Eilat and Haifa, and the atomic research city of Dimona is located there, making this a strategically important region for Israel.

シナイ半島に連なるイスラエルの南部地方で,全般に乾燥した砂漠地帯である。地中海沿岸平野に連なる北部には中心都市ベール・シェバがある。中部にはシナイ半島から延びた褶曲山地が走り,さまざまな鉱物資源が埋蔵されており,開発が進められている。南部は荒涼とした砂漠がアカバ湾岸まで続く。南端のエイラトはイスラエルの唯一の紅海への出口として戦略上重要な港である。ネゲブへはティベリアス湖およびヤルコン川から灌漑用水路が延ばされて農業開発が進められており,またエイラトとハイファ間に送油管が通じ,さらに原子力研究都市ディモナがあるなど,イスラエルにとって戦略的に重要な地域となっている。
