Abstract

ABSTRACT A Geomorphologic-tectonic study is done by the author about the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah in the Death Sea. This has been a subject of several studies over the centuries. Bible studies that focus on scientific studies today. A geomorphologic approximation is carried out by the author determining the tectonic reasons that causes the destruction and disappearance of these cities.

Highlights

  • The Dead Sea is a vast tectonic depression that is located between -118 meters to 378 meters (387ft to 1240ft) where the Jordan River flows, forming a endorrheic basin of about 41,650 km2 (16081sqm)|of which the Dead Sea occupies about 810 km2 (313sqm)

  • Dead Sea naturally occupies the space of a tectonic depression, product of the slide and separation of the African and Arab plates sliding faults, which have produced an area of accretion where the magma of the upper mantle has come to cover the separate space product of the tectonic thrusts
