According to research, the territory of Samaria was the central region of the biblical Land of Israel, today located in the northern West Bank. It is located on a hill northwest of Nāblus in the West Bank territory under Israeli administration since 1967. As for the modern name, research shows it as Sabasṭiyah. Presently, the total population of the Samaritans stands at less than 1,000 people.
