On the front cover of the
paper back version of Barbara Kreiger's marvelous book "The Dead Sea" is
a reproduction of the map of Canaan from the 1650 edition of Thomas
Fuller's "Pisgah-Sight of Palestine".
Her picture came from the Laor Cartographic Collection, Jewish
National and University Library, Jerusalem.
Because of her kindness and generosity, I am able to reproduce it
here full size.
It is worth the wait in downloading.
Please note in particular the position of Zeboim and Sodom as they
relate to our satellite images and the surprising position of Zoar/Bela
on the West Bank of the Dead Sea. As is the case with the Madaba Map,
there is no Lisan and Southern basin.
