- LS refers to Arculf's pilgrimage ca 681-684. See De Locis Sanctis. The edition cited is "Petrus Diaconus, Liber de locis sanctis, edd. I. Fraipont and R Weber, in Itineraria et alia geographica, CCSL 175, Turnhout, 1965, pp. 37-47; 93, 103; 252-278 [1137, partly deriving from 4th-cent. It.

Hadashot Arkheologiyot: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7]- Mentioned in at least two Amarna letters of 14th century BC (Soulem/Shunama/Shumanu/etc). [8] [9] [10] (I didn't find a very clean summary in a good source.) Zerotalk 01:34, 1 May 2010 (UTC)
- "Dictionary of deities and demons in the Bible, DDD" by K. van der Toorn, Bob Becking, Pieter Willem van der Horst. [11] This a very learned source, by the way. I can read both pages of the Shunama entry at Amazon.
- A 1939 survey map writes "Al Ajami" just on the southern edge of Sulam. Do we know what that was? Zerotalk 07:58, 1 May 2010 (UTC)
Robinson, and Berggren edit
- I think the "Berggren" Robinson refers to as having visited Sulam in 1822 is the Swede Jacob Berggren, see Resor i Europa och Österländerne, 1826, vol 1. I´m trying to find the Sulam-ref. (Yeah: I can read it: Swedish really hasn´t changed that much these last 200 years). Not all of his books are on the net, though, and I think Robinson refers to a German edition.
- Also, Robinson notes that it is on the Jacotin-map..perhaps a "cut-out"?
map edit
Here is a map showing Sulam in relation to Nazareth in 1937, with road revision to 1939. Ad Dahi is on here too. Zerotalk 08:13, 1 May 2010 (UTC)
And here is a similar area on the Jacotin map. Zerotalk 09:12, 1 May 2010 (UTC)
"Hiatus in settlement 13th-19th century": where? Only in limited area? edit
There might be a contradiction between the administrative Ottoman source + Jacotin from the History paragraph and archaeological findings (Dalali-Amos 2009). But: Dalali-Amos #2 apparently only refers to the tell and specifically to areas north of the spring; maybe the 1596 register and Jacotin are referring to other areas. We should keep an eye on it. Accurate understanding of the details, even when gained from rushed-through summaries from Hadashot Arlheologiyot or alike, is sometimes essential, or we end up with 600 years of abandonment where there was none. Or maybe there was, but not to this magnitude. A spring in the Jezreel Valley area should guarantee a large degree of continuity, I can only think of malaria as a reason that might have put off people from settling.
