Art. VII.—On the Mountainous Country, the portion of Asher, between the Coasts of Tyre and Sidon, and the Jordan
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 March 2011
Extract
The mountainous country lying between the coasts of Tyre and Sidon and the valley of the Jordan presents almost a complete blank, even in our latest maps of Palestine. Nau (a.d. 1674) went from the mouth of the Kasimíyeh river to Safed; Buckingham (a.d. 1816), from Banias to Sidon; Ven Monro (a.d. 1833) went from Safed to Tyre; and my friend Mr. Thomson, the American missionary of Beyrút, took a somewhat similar route in 1837. In 1835, Mr. Smith passed from the Húleh, through Merj Ayún, to Jezzin, and subsequently (1838), in company with Professor Robinson, from Safed to Tyre.
