El Matan is an illegal Israeli outpost in the West Bank on the lands of the Palestinian village of Uyun Kafr Qari' in Wad Qana, located around a kilometer south of Ma'ale Shomron, under the jurisdiction of the Shomron Regional Council. The outpost was established in 2000 on the Wadi Qana Nature reserve – one of the largest and most important such reserves in the West Bank – by a group of religious youths from the nearby settlements of Karnei Shomron and Ma'ale Shomron. It is home to an estimated population of 48 (2008), around 16 families and a small number of singles, both religious and non-religious Jews.
