The Jordan Valley and Petra . pear from the story. Professor Libbeys purpose was to study thevalley of the Jordan from beginning to end, andhence we left the sea at Sidon and climbed overLebanon via Jezzin and Kefrhuneh, from whichhigh altitude, 4100 feet, we had a magnificent viewof the general configuration of Southern Lebanon, the Upper Jordan, and Galilee before descendinginto the valleys of the Litany and the Jordan, toexamine the details. Between the gorge of theLitany at Burghuz and the Hasbany at Khiyam, we studied and crossed the low divide which formsthe watershed between the valley of the Litany andthe valley of the Jordan, and went at once toBanias.
