Talk:Jebel Bishri

Latest comment: 3 years ago by Paradise Chronicle in topic Good source?

Why is ARAM being questioned as a "self-published source?"

edit

ARAM is a journal that is fairly well-respected in the field of archaeology in the Ancient Near East. Here is a link to the article in question: https://www.academia.edu/26442318/Equid_Burials_in_Archaeological_Contexts_in_the_Amorite_Hurrian_and_Hyksos_Cultural_Intercourse That said, this article (which contains the listed citation on p.341) only states: "During the survey led by the present author on Jebel Bishri in Central Syria, often identified with the 'Mountain of the Amorites,' we found a way cut into rock which had carved wheel-marks for the size of a donkey cart." It does not state who has identified the site as such, so a better source is needed. Ruyn13 (talk) 22:39, 2 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

Good source?

[This] is a rather good source on the geology of the Bishri mountains. But it would need some knowledge to understand what it the geologic terms mean. Paradise Chronicle (talk) 11:37, 31 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
