Ever since the age of 12 I have dreamed of going on an archaeological dig, and at least in my case this dream had nothing to do with that famous archaeologist \u201cIndiana Jones\u201d.\u00a0 <\/span>However, like Professor Jones, I do share his interest in Biblical History.\u00a0 <\/span>Recently I read a book about a real life \u201cIndiana Jones\u201d named Dr. Stephen Collins, and Dr. Collins strongly believes that he is excavating the Biblical City of Sodom.<\/p>\n The book focuses on items which Dr. Collins has found while digging in an area around an ancient Tel.\u00a0 <\/span>A \u201cTEL\u201d, \u00a0for all you non-history buffs, is an earth mound that is formed when cultures repeatedly build a city in the exact same spot.\u00a0 <\/span>Dr. Collins\u2019 dig focuses on Tall el-Hammom which is an area that is located on the Jordanian side of the Jordon river, just northeast of the Dead Sea.<\/p>\n In his book, Discovering the City of Sodom, Dr. Collins describes the painfully tedious work that is producing evidence of a unique ancient city.\u00a0 <\/span>He has found a large city gate as the entrance to a large Middle Bronze Age city. \u00a0\u00a0Even more\u00a0<\/span>intriguing is the fact that he has found some Trinitite.\u00a0 <\/span>What is Trinitite?\u00a0 <\/span>Well Trinitite is a compound that is formed when silica sand is melted at an extremely high temperature.\u00a0 <\/span>Trinitite was first described as an entity that was found at ground zero of the atomic explosion test site in southern New Mexico.\u00a0 <\/span>What is interesting is that Dr. Collins found this type of rock in southern Jordon in a region where there has been no known previous atomic explosions.<\/p>\n What does this all mean?<\/span>\u00a0 Well Trinite plus other items found by Dr. Collins have led him and others to believe that this area is the exact site of Biblical Sodom.<\/span>\u00a0 Now if that is true it is an amazing discovery….and it also would confirm the likely existence of another Biblical story\u2014 the cursing of Sodom<\/span><\/p>\n Does all this intrigue you?\u00a0 <\/span>Well if it does, then I suggest you go on-line and order the book, Discovering Biblical Sodom.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Ever since the age of 12 I have dreamed of going on an archaeological dig, and at least
