If the artifacts are indeed prehistoric stone tools, then it means humans settled on the shores of ancient Pleistocene lake more than 30, years ago. The well was the only permanent watering place in those parts and, being a necessary watering place for Bedouin raiders, had been the scene of many fierce encounters in the past, [12]. According to those overseeing the project, Neom has already invited tenders from a range of international firms, while plans are moving forward to build a road bridge to Egypt. In the valley of the Tombs, to the east of the city, the "houses of the dead," veritable underground palaces, were decorated with particularly fine sculpture and frescoes. Most tales of the lost city locate it somewhere in the Rub' al Khali desert, also known as the Empty Quarter, a vast area of sand dunes covering most of the southern third of the Arabian Peninsula , including most of Saudi Arabia and parts of Oman , the United Arab Emirates , and Yemen. Biotech City of the Future Healthcare. Original Title. At the beginning of the 17th century, the Emir Fakhr ad-Din was still using Palmyra as a place to exercise his police, however he was anxious to have greater security than offered by the ruined city, so he had a castle built on the hillside overlooking it.

  • The Possible Effects of Irrigation Schemes and Irrigation Methods on Water Budget and Economy in Atatürk Dam of South-Eastern Anatolia Region of Turkey
    The possible effects of irrigation schemes and irrigation methods on water budget and economy in Atatürk dam of south-eastern Anatolia region of Turkey Huseyin Demir1, Ahmet Zahir Erkan2, Nesrin Baysan2, Gonca Karaca Bilgen2 1 GAP Şanlıurfa Tünel Çıkış Ağzı 2 GAP Cankaya, Ankara, Turkey Abstract. The South-eastern Anatolia Project (GAP) has been implemented in the southeast part of Turkey, covering 9 provinces and the two most important rivers of Turkey. The main purpose of this gorgeous project is to uplift the income level and living standards of people in the region, to remove the inter-regional development disparities and to contribute to the national goals of economic development and social stability. The cost of the project is 32 billion USD consisting of 13 sub-projects in the river basins of Euphrates and Tigris. The project has evolved over time and has become multi sectoral, integrated and human based on the sustainable regional development. Upon the fully completion of the project, 1.8 Million hectares of land will be able to be irrigated in Euphrates and Tigris Basins through surface and underground water resources. From 1995 until now, 273.000 ha. of land have already been irrigated within the GAP Project. Roughly 739,000 ha. of this land will be irrigated from Atatürk Dam, the largest dam of GAP Project. At present, nearly ¼ of this area is under irrigation. Some technological developments have been experienced in the Project area, ranging from upstream controlled schemes having trapezoidal section, lined or unlined, to upstream controlled schemes having high pressurized piped system; and from conventional methods to drip irrigation method.

  • Interesting Facts on Ancient Mounds—Three Texts in the Bedouin Arabic Dialect of the Harran-Urfa Region (Southeastern Turkey)
    INTERESTING FACTS ON ANCIENT Mounds—THREE TEXTS IN THE BEDOUIN ARABIC DIALECT OF THE Harran-URFA REGION (SOUTHEASTERN Turkey) Stephan Procházka The article deals with an Arabic Bedouin dialect which is spoken in the plain of Harran situated south of the city of Urfa, Turkey. The dialect of the local Arab minority, which has been settled in that region for centu- ries, belongs to the so-called Šāwi vernaculars that are widespread among the goat and sheep breeding nomads of Syria and Iraq. Besides linguis- tic remarks on some outstanding phonological, morphological, and lexi- cal features, the paper contains three original texts in transcription with English translation. The texts were recorded in three different villages and all deal with stories connected to the numerous ancient mounds in the region. Introduction Recently Bruce Ingham published an article on the speech of the Euphra- tes Bedouin, which he called a “fringe Mesopotamian dialect” (Ingham 2009). The present paper deals with a Bedouin dialect that is spoken on the opposite fringe of the Šāwi dialectal continuum. The Arabic dialects spoken in the vast Plain of Harran (called dīrit Ḥarrān in the local dia- lect) arguably constitute the northernmost variety of the Arabian Bedouin dialects, which for many decades have been the main focus of Bruce Ing- ham’s fruitful research. Many Arabs of the region investigated here live in the southern neighbourhoods of the provincial capital Şanlıurfa and in a few small towns between Urfa and the Syrian border, among them Harran and Tall Abyaḍ (Turkish Akçakale). Besides these urban settlements there are numerous tiny villages scattered in the fertile plain and often situated next to or around a ruin-mound.

  • First Thoughts--Herodotus
    N'O" FOR PUBLICATION ASA-1 WITHOUT WRITER'S CONSENT INSTITUTE OF CURRENT WORLD AFFAIRS Istanbul, 27 September 1994 Mr Peter Bird Martin, Executive Director Institute of Current World Affairs 4 West Wheelock Street Hanover, NH 03755 USA Dear Peter: First thoughts Herodotus I returned from visiting my sister in Canton, packed up my long life in Prague in three whirlwind, jet-lagged days, and flew to Istanbul. I hope I may be forgiven the wave of culture shock which hit me when gothic spires resolved themselves into minarets, Dragon Boats on the Pearl River into oil tankers on the Bosphoms, and I first heard the muezzins. That wave has now started to subside. This "Newsletter" is my first account of what I have begun to see. I confess at once to a healthy diffidence that I see very well yet. Medieval scholars commonly began any work with an apology for being unequal to the task at hand, and I am happy to follow in that tradition. I have only actively explored Istanbul through the end of summer: the short space, in fact, from the ripening of wild blackberry along the Bosphoms to the first appearance this week of portable charcoal stoves for roasting chestnuts in front of the Blue Mosque. So I am very wary of capsule judgments in such a complicated place, or claiming authority prematurely for what I observe. But what sort of authority? What sort of observations? Embarking on a fellowship as gorgeous as this, offering (practically demanding) release from the cathedocracy, the tyranny of degrees and academic trade- unionism, or the conventional wisdom of the policy-planners all the worlds I've known, in short I would be sorry to find I had confmed my "Newsletters" to news, or foreign policy commentary, or "current events" at all.

The breakthrough to the non-Jewish world with the Gos- pel had largely started at Antioch. And now this group of believers would launch a movement toward Gentiles that would revolutionize Christianity. This event was the beginning of the first missionary journey of Paul and Barnabas.
