==Overview==


Although the exact location of Modin is disputed, the area in which the town was located lies halfway between Jerusalem and the coast.
Modin was the headquarter of the [[Maccabees]], the place from where the rebellion against [[Menelaus]] and [[Antiochus IV Epiphanes]] started.
Once again, during the Bar-Kokhba revolt Modin was at the center of the rebellion.
