After American archaeologist Nelson Glueck explored the region in the 1930s, he announced he had found the real-life "King Solomon's Mines" in the biblical kingdom of Edom

Interesting treatment of Edom from early Christian and later Jewish standpoints:

Isn't that part of where Petra is, where the remnant of Israel escapes form the world Ruler (the beast)?

these shall escape from his hand: Edom, Moab, and the prominent people of Ammon.
Daniel 11:41.

> “But research has uncovered the untold story of a thriving and wealthy society in the Arava Desert – in parts of Israel and Jordan – that existed during the 12th-11th centuries BCE.”

BCE eh?

No thanks Aaron, I’ll stick to BC/AD. No matter how much you try to cover it up, the more you do it the more people like me will ignore anything you have to say.

Because if you are going to cover up the origins of a calendar to suit your view, you’ll do the same to history in general.

I don’t care how many publications have been pressured, mandated, coerced to follow the cover up, it’s still a cover up and everyone who knows real history can see it.

So go ahead and lie, it alerts the community of truth seekers.

A map would have been nice to show where the Arava Desert is located on the Israeli-Jordanian border.

The Edomites eventually moved into Europe and became the ancestors of the first Romans.

Edom was not related to Sodom.

Edomy is not Sodomy.

Apparently, if you dig into it, you have to have your copper ready to commit edomy.

It is hard for me to believe that Solomon's wealth - from King Solomon's Mines - was from copper mines. The Bible says gold. The Davidic Kingdom may have taken control of Edom's ancient copper mines but they were apparently operated with slave labor deep underground. I am not sure Israel would support such.
