This seems to be Byzantine work, or Roman of the second or third century. About 30 yards north-west of the tower is a natural cave, 12 yards by 10 yards, and 4 feet high. There is a well in the ruin. The sacred tree is a conspicuous object to the north-west. The name of this ruin--evidently once a place of some importance--is very closely similar to that of Bela, the earlier name of Zoar (Gen. xiv. 2 and'8); but_the situation on the plateau does not seem to agree with the situation of Zoar. Eusebius speaks of a Bakti as inhabited in his own time (fourth century), and as having a Roman garrison. He describes it as in the east limits of Judaea above the Dead Sea, apparently east of Jordan. Jerome also states it to be the place called Zoora by the Syrians, which might be thought to agree with the vicinity of Rujm Saaflr, about a mile to the west. It is curious also that a' place called 'Amriyeh (the proper equivalent of Gomorrah or Amorah) exists not far west. It is possible that these names are survivals of an ecclesiastical tradition of the fourth century, but they cannot be considered the real Biblical sites (see Reland's ' Palestine, ' vol. ii., pp. 622, 1065; see also Tell esh Shaghfir). Visited September 13, 1881. 1 '--This is evidently an ancient Edrei ' 71'lN, a name signifying a ' strong place'.(Josh. xiii. 31, and xix._36). Two cities so called existed, one in Bashan (now edh Dhra), one in' Galilee, probably the present Yater. The present ruin appears not to be historically known at all.

Download or read book A Global Middle East written by Liat Kozma and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2014-12-03 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The start of the twentieth century ushered in a period of unprecedented change in the Middle East. These transformations, brought about by the emergence of the modern state system and an increasing interaction with a more globalized economy, irrevocably altered the political and social structures of the Middle East, even as the region itself left its mark on the processes of globalization themselves. As a result of these changes, there was an intensification in the movement of people, commodities and ideas across the globe: commercial activity, urban space, intellectual life, leisure culture, immigration patterns and education - nothing was left untouched. It shows how even as the Middle East was responding to increased economic interactions with the rest of the world by restructuring not only local economies, but also cultural, political and social institutions, the region's engagement with these trends altered the nature of globalization itself. This period has been seen as one in which the modern state system and its oftentimes artificial boundaries emerged in the Middle East. But this book highlights how, despite this, it was also one of tremendous interconnection. Approaching the first period of modern globalization by investigating the movement of people, objects and ideas into, around and out of the Middle East, the authors demonstrate how the Middle East in this period was not simply subject or reactive to the West, but rather an active participant in the transnational flows that transformed both the region and the world. A Global Middle East offers an examination of a variety of intellectual and more material exchanges, such as nascent feminist movements and Islamist ideologies as well as the movement of sex workers across the Mediterranean and Jewish migration into Palestine. A Global Middle East emphasises this by examining the multi-directional nature of movement across borders, as well as this movement's intensity, volume and speed. By focusing on the theme of mobility as the defining feature of 'modern globalization' in the Middle East, it provides an essential examination of the formative years of the region.

Download or read book Competitive Archaeology in Jordan written by Elena Corbett and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2015-01-15 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An examination of archaeology in Jordan and Palestine, Competitive Archaeology in Jordan explores how antiquities have been used to build narratives and national identities. Tracing Jordanian history, and the importance of Jerusalem within that history, Corbett analyzes how both foreign and indigenous powers have engaged in a competition over ownership of antiquities and the power to craft history and geography based on archaeological artifacts. She begins with the Ottoman and British Empires—under whose rule the institutions and borders of modern Jordan began to take shape—asking how they used antiquities in varying ways to advance their imperial projects. Corbett continues through the Mandate era and the era of independence of an expanded Hashemite Kingdom, examining how the Hashemites and other factions, both within and beyond Jordan, have tried to define national identity by drawing upon antiquities. Competitive Archaeology in Jordan traces a complex history through the lens of archaeology's power as a modern science to create and give value to spaces, artifacts, peoples, narratives, and academic disciplines. It thus considers the role of archaeology in realizing Jordan's modernity—drawing its map; delineating sacred and secular spaces; validating taxonomies of citizens; justifying legal frameworks and institutions of state; determining logos of the nation for display on stamps, currency, and in museums; and writing history. Framing Jordan's history in this way, Corbett illustrates the manipulation of archaeology by governments, institutions, and individuals to craft narratives, draw borders, and create national identities.
