  • Map 86 Paphlagonia Compiled by C
    Map 86 Paphlagonia Compiled by C. Foss, 1995 Introduction The map comprises ancient Paphlagonia, and extends into eastern Bithynia and the northernmost part of Galatia. Evidence for the ancient topography is most abundant on the coast, along the Roman roads, and in Galatia. Arrian’s Periplus Ponti Euxini (written c. A.D. 132), together with an earlier text by Menippus (c. 20 B.C.) and a related Late Antique anonymous work, describe the coast in great detail. Most of the sites named in these works can be located at least approximately, although a few resist identification; Müller’s commentary in GGM I remains valuable. For the Roman roads, ItMiller is uncritical; French (1981) is far more useful, but treats only one major road. The roads of Paphlagonia are presented in admirable detail by TIB Paphlagonien, those of northern Galatia likewise by TIB Galatien. The interior of Paphlagonia is a remote, mountainous country, cut off from the regions to the south by long, parallel ranges. Communication east and west is relatively easy; north and south, it is much more difficult. The country contains a few long, wide plains and river valleys, some of considerable fertility. In antiquity, the mountains were heavily forested. For the most part, the region was never densely populated. For a general description, see Leonhard (1915); and for an excellent account of some areas (including eastern Bithynia), with discussion of specific problems, note Robert (1980). RE Paphlagonia gives a full list of all named sites (cols. 2537-50) and of physical remains (2498-2510, 2515). Some features listed there do not appear on the map because of limited significance or uncertainty of dating.

Die Mauer ist das größte Bauwerk in der Geschichte Israels mit geschätzten 2,5 Milliarden Dollar Kosten. Sie wird ca. 750 Kilometer lang und ist damit doppelt so lang wie die Grenze zwischen Israel und der Westbank, weil sie sich tief ins Westjordanland hineinschlängelt. Wie viel palästinensisches Land wird durch den Bau der Mauer von Israel annektiert? Die Mauer verläuft nicht entlang der „Grünen Linie” (Waffenstillstandslinie von 1948), sondern schneidet tief in palästinensisches Gebiet hinein. Von den 22% des ehemaligen Mandatsgebiets Palästina (die anderen 78% sind israelisches Staatsgebiet), das für einen Palästinenserstaat vorgesehen ist, nehmen Mauer und mehr als 200 israelische Siedlungen weiter Land. Knapp 50% der Fläche der Westbank werden einem zukünftigen Staat Palästina fehlen, wenn weiter das Recht des Stärkeren gilt und nicht internationales Recht.

CAMBRIDGE: at the University Press 1905 First Edition 1900, Reprinted 1901, 1905 PREFACE BY THE GENERAL EDITOR FOR THE OLD TESTAMENT. THE present General Editor for the Old Testament in the Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges desires to say that, in accordance with the policy of his predecessor the Bishop of Worcester, he does not hold himself responsible for the particular interpreta­ tions adopted or for the opinions expressed by the editors of the several Books, nor has he endeavoured to bring them into agreement with one another. It is inevitable that there should be differences of opinion in regard to many questions of criticism and interpretation, and it seems best that these differences should find free expression in different volumes. He has endeavoured to secure, as far as possible, that the general scope and character of the series should be observed, and that views which have a reasonable claim to consideration should not be ignored, but he has felt it best that the final responsibility should, in general, rest with the individual contributors.

  • The Eastern Desert
    Chapter 4 THE EASTERN DESERT 4.1 GEOLOGY AND GEOMORPHOLOGY The Eastern Desert of Egypt occupies the area extending from the Nile Valley eastward to the Gulf of Suez and the Red Sea which is about 223000 km2, Le. 21% ofthe total area of Egypt (Figure 2.1). It is higher than the Western Desert as it consists essentially of a back­ bone of high, rugged mountains running parallel to and at a relatively short distance from the coast. The peaks of many of these mountains are more than 1500 m above sea level. These mountains are ßanked to the north and west by an intensively dissected sedimentary plateau. The folding and faulting that have occurred during geological history have caused these mountains to be dissected into several blocks of a series of mountain groups (Abu Al-Izz, 1971). The mountains of the Eastern Desert are of two types: igneous and limestone. The igneous mountains extend southward from about Lat. 28°N to beyond the Sudano-Egyptian border (Lat. 22°N). The highest peak, Gebel Shayeb EI-Banat (EI-Shayeb, near Lat. 2TN), reaches 2184 m above sea level. To the north of the igneous mountains are the extensive and lofty limestone mountains of South Galala (1464 m), North Galala (1274 m) and Gebel Ataqa (871 m) separated by broad valleys (wadis). To the west of the Red Sea mountains lie two broad plateaux, parted by the road of Qift to Qusseir (Lat. 26°N). This is a mountainous area which has the badland features typical of arid and semi-arid regions.

All rights reserved. Published 1944. Second Impression 1973. Printed by Cushing-Malloy, Inc., Ann Arbor, Michigan, United States of America oi.uchicago.edu PREFACE The present monograph grew out of what was originally intended to be merely a chapter serving as historical introduction to Nuzi Personal Names ("Oriental In­ stitute Publications," Vol. LVII). But during preparation of the manuscript it soon became apparent that such a sober volume as Nuzi Personal Names was no place for complicated discussions on the history and relationship of the Hurrians and Subarians. This fact, coupled with the steady growth of the manuscript, made it imperative to give up the original intention and to publish it separately. To Dr. John A. Wilson and Dr. T. George Allen are due my thanks and gratitude for hav­ ing accepted the monograph for publication in the Oriental Institute's "Studies in Ancient Oriental Civilization." The manuscript had attained approximately its present size, if not its present form, at the beginning of 1940. The gist of it was presented in a lecture, "The Hur- rian-Subarian Problem/' given February 26, 1940, at a meeting of the Near East Club of the University of Chicago.
