The Na'aman (, ''Nahal Na'aman'') or Na'mein River (, ''Nahr Na'mein'') is a stream in northwestern Israel. To the ancient writers Pliny, Tacitus, and Josephus, it was known as the Belus (Latin) or Belos River (, ''Bē̂los'') of Phoenicia. Course The Na'aman River originates from springs near Ein Afek (primarily Ein Nymphit) and flows through the Zebulun Valley from south to north before emptying into the Bay of Haifa (formerly Bay of Acre) south of Acre (Akko) on the Mediterranean Sea. It previously flowed directly south of Tel Akko (the site of ancient Acre) but has shifted over time to be about away. The En Afek Nature Reserve near the Haifa Bay suburb of Kiryat Bialik, is the last remnant of the Nahal Na'aman wetlands.

Emperor Belos
This is a list of characters featured in the Disney Channel animated series ''The Owl House,'' created by Dana Terrace. Overview Main Luz Noceda Luz Noceda (voiced by Sarah-Nicole Robles) is a 14-year-old Afro- Dominican-American girl from Gravesfield, Connecticut who ends up on the Boiling Isles and becomes Eda's apprentice and a new exchange student at Hexside Academy. Luz loves all things fantasy and magical, wanting to become a witch even before receiving training. She often feels as though she does not fit in, which results in poor self-worth when she messes up and a desire to be seen as special and valued, and it is implied her low self-esteem has caused her to have a guilt and martyr complex. She learns she can use magic by drawing glyphs that she sees in the environment and through spell circles witches cast to do magic.

Belus (album)
''Belus'' is the seventh full-length album by the Norwegian one-man band Burzum. Released on 8 March 2010 through Byelobog Productions, it is the first Burzum studio album to be recorded after a near 11-year hiatus. Background ''Belus'' was the first album to be recorded and released after Varg Vikernes' May 2009 parole from prison. He had served almost 16 years of a 21-year murder sentence. The album was originally called "The Return of Baldur", but Vikernes announced the album in November 2009 as ''Den Hvite Guden'' ("The White God" in Norwegian). In December 2009, he announced that the name was being changed to ''Belus'' because some in the media speculated that the album might have racist undertones. He stated that the former name had nothing to do with skin colour or racism, but that it was merely a common name for the Norse god Baldr. Vikernes suggests that ''Belus'' is the oldest known (Proto-Indo-European) name of the life-death-rebirth deity that is reflected in t ...

Belus (genus)
Belidae is a family of weevils, called belids or primitive weevils because they have straight antennae, unlike the "true weevils" or Curculionidae which have geniculate (elbowed) antennae. They are sometimes known as "cycad weevils", but this properly refers to a few species from the genera '' Parallocorynus'' and '' Rhopalotria''. Distribution The Belidae today have an essentially Gondwanan distribution, occurring only in the Australia–New Guinea–New Zealand region up to Southeast Asia, South and Central America (barely reaching North America), some Pacific islands (notably the Hawaiian Islands) and a few places in Africa. Many lineages of belids are notable for their highly relictual distribution; for example the Aglycyderini are found in two areas on opposite sides of the Earth, with no such beetles known from anywhere in between. Belids were more widespread during the Late Jurassic to Early Cretaceous, about , when they were found at least in Central Asia, Spain and Br ...

Beloš
Beloš ( sr-cyr, Белош; or ''Belus''; fl. 1141–1163), was a Serbian prince and Hungarian palatine who served as the regent of Hungary from 1141 until 1146, alongside his sister Helena, mother of the infant King Géza II. Beloš held the title of duke (''dux''), and ban of Croatia from 1146 until 1157 and briefly in 1163. Beloš, as a member of the Serbian Vukanović dynasty, also briefly ruled his patrimony as the Grand Prince of Serbia in 1162. He lived during a period of Serbian-Hungarian alliance, amid a growing threat from the Byzantines, who had earlier been the overlords of Serbia. Origin Beloš was the third son of Uroš I, the Grand Prince of Serbia ( r. ca 1112–1145), and Anna Diogenissa, the granddaughter of Romanos IV Diogenes, the Byzantine Emperor (r. 1068–1071). According to historian György Szabados, it is possible that Beloš was born around 1108. Serbian historian Jovanka Kalić put the date of his birth in the period from 1110 to 1115. He ...

Bel (god)
Bêl (; from ) is a title signifying 'lord' or 'master' applied to various gods in the Mesopotamian religion of Akkad, Assyria, and Babylonia. The feminine form is ''Bêlit'' ('Lady, Mistress') in Akkadian. ''Bel'' is represented in Greek as Belos and in Latin as Belus. ''Belit'' appears in Greek form as Beltis (Βελτις). Linguistically, ''Bel'' is an East Semitic form cognate with the Northwest Semitic Baal with the same meaning. ''Bel'' was especially used for the Babylonian god Marduk in Assyrian and neo-Babylonian personal names or mentioned in inscriptions in a Mesopotamian context. Similarly, ''Bêlit'' mostly refers to Marduk's spouse Sarpanit. Marduk's mother, the Sumerian goddess often referred to in the Sumerian language as Ninhursag, Damkina, and Ninmah, was often known as ''Belit-ili'' ('Lady of the Gods') in Akkadian. Other gods called "Lord" were sometimes identified totally or in part with Bel Marduk. The god Malak-bel of Palmyra is an example ...
