The northern Ein Gev landslide exhibits a multi-phase sliding history in which the youngest slide was dated to before ca. 5 ka BP. Because the youngest slide has a fresh scarp with no colluviation, Katz et al. (2009:289) suggested that an additional event may have occurred after 5 ka BP, which they state "might be related to" one of the mid-8th century CE earthquakes.
