ARCHAEOLOGISTS CLAIM TO HAVE FOUND ANCIENT CITY OF SODOM (AND GOMORRAH)
Ancient Mysteries ^ | October 11, 2015 | Staff

A team of archaeologists working on a 10-year excavation near the Dead Sea believe they have unearthed the remains of the ancient city of Sodom, detailed in the book of Genesis. This startling discovery was not only done by using the Bible to locate the city, much of the findings confirm the Biblical account of a once-thriving, wealthy metropolis that met sudden, swift destruction as it burned to the ground from a super-powerful explosive force. The findings continue the steady stream of ancient evidence that continues to confirm the accuracy of the Holy Bible. Making The Case For Sodom’s Discovery​ Picture ​A map of the “kikkar” or well-watered plains of the Jordan river.

According to reports:

​“Now having completed the tenth season of excavations, an archaeological team headed by Steven Collins of Trinity Southwest University, New Mexico, has unearthed a goldmine of ancient monumental structures and artifacts that are revealing a massive Bronze Age city-state that dominated the region of Jordan’s southern Jordan Valley, even during a time when many other great cities of the “Holy Land” region were either abandoned or in serious decline.

This claim is an *interpretation* of facts based on a legitimate archaeological dig at Tall e-Hammam.
