Hillel the Amora is buried in a field behind the Dalton cemetery at the edge of the village. Early journals discribe the Kever as being right next to an ancient nut tree. Yisroel Meir Gabbai and Ohalei Tzadikim identified a tree which they believe is the one referenced in the journals.

Description:
A fifth generation Amora and the last Nasi of the Sanhedrin who created the current Jewish calendar.

Hillel Nesiah was a 13th generation descendent of Hillel the Elder and a son of Rebbe Yehuda Nessiah III. He lived in Eretz Yisroel during the fifth generation of Amoraim and served as the final Nasi of the Sanhedrin. Seeing the Roman-Christian led prosecution that almost obliterated Jewish life in Eretz Yisroel, Hillel Nesiah gathered his Sanhedrin and established the Jewish months and leap years until the time of Moshiach. He is buried in Dalton, Northern Israel.
