Wikipedia description:
Hartuv (Hebrew: הרטוב), Arabic: ارتون) or Har-Tuv (lit. 'Mount of Goodness') was an agricultural colony in the Judean Hills established in 1882 on land purchased from the Arab village of Artuf by English missionaries. It was destroyed in the 1929 Palestine riots but was rebuilt in 1930. In 1948 it was abandoned again. Hartuv was the starting point for the Convoy of 35 during the 1948 war. Hartuv is now an industrial zone near Beit Shemesh.
