Halakhah for Rosh Hashanah 53:13

וכן הנהיג רבי חלפתא בציפורי ורבי חנניא בן תרדיון בסיכני וכשבא דבר אצל חכמים אמרו לא היו נוהגין כן אלא בשערי מזרח ובהר הבית בלבד

there are no trumpets. R'Halafta adopted the same custom in Zepphoris and R'Hananiah B'Teradion in Sikni,<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' perhaps Sogana in Galilee mentioned in Josephus, Vita, 51.');"><sup>22</sup></span> and when this was reported to the Sages they said: This was not the practice save only in the gates of the East and the Mount of the Temple.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' I.e., the gates of the East on the Temple Mount. According to some, however, the 'gates of the East' were in the Women's Court (v. Rashi) .');"><sup>23</sup></span>
