Sinai Peninsula A Mosaic Of War And History
The Sinai, a 23 000 square mile arid land bordered by the Mediterranean and Red Sea, has seen countless armies traverse it while remaining sparsely populated. Ancient routes and modern conflicts share its sands, with nomads and archaeologists among the few long-time residents. The region’s name traces to the Babylonian Assyrian moon god Sin, and tradition ties Mount Sinai to Moses and the Ten Commandments.
