Conclusion N2 - "Biblical Zoara is located in the Ghor as-Safi, precisely at the lowest place on earth. Its environmental and cultural history is therefore unique. During two decades, an archaeological project was conducted which discovered many significant finds of human occupations spanning some 12,000 years. These have been meticulously studied and the results are now presented in this comprehensive volume"-- UR - https://www.taylorfrancis.com/books/9781003108696 UR - http://www.oclc.org/content/dam/oclc/forms/terms/vbrl-201703.pdf ER -
