The Dead Sea Scrolls (1956) - Page 13

A map of the northwestern shore of the Dead Sea and its surrounding topography. The map illustrates the location of Khirbet Qumrân and various numbered sites (1 through 10) in its vicinity. Geographical features include 'Ain Nebi Musa, Mukallik Debr, Wady Qumrân, 'Ain Feshkha, and Ras Feshkha. Contour lines indicate elevations of -200 metres, -300 metres, and Sea Level. Arrows at the top and left indicate directions to Jericho and Jerusalem, respectively. A legend box at the bottom right explains map symbols for seasonal rivers (wadys) and elevation markers in both metres and feet. A scale bar at the bottom shows a distance of 4 miles.
