Dead Sea sediment analyses show 15,000-year-old climate phase periods
The sediments at the edge of Lake Lisan near the archaeological site of Masada and from the bottom of the Dead Sea are unique witnesses to this development.
Sediments formed in the Lisan lake during lake level between 24.000 and 14.000 years ago. Today, these deposits are found more than 200 meters above the water level of the Dead Sea. View from Masada across the Dead Sea.(photo credit: GFZ)ByJUDY SIEGEL-ITZKOVICHUpdated:
