S. W.. Woodward Gives National Museum
Reproduction Of One of Oldest Maps

An interesting and unique map in
the form Of mosaic has been added
to the extensive collection of the Ma
tional Museum. It is said by experts
to be one of the oldest maps In exist

ward. of this city. The original from
the floor Of an old church in Medeba,
q town In the former territory Of Moab
situated almost directly east Of Bethle-
hem. 1t often is mentioned in the Old
Testament.
The mosaic. which dates from the
sixth century A. D.. according to
museum officials. was discovered in
1862. when the ruins Of the old church
were being cleared away for q new
edifice. Much of the mosaic floor w&s
destroyed by workmen before 1t was
discovered by scientists. but the part
of the map saved from destruction ex-
tends from Neblus. the Biblical She
chem. in the north. to the Nile delta Of
Egypt in the south.
The reproduction. like the original mo-
sale, is inscribed in Greek and combines
with geography a picturesque illustration
Of the Bible and Christianity in Pales-
tine. The artist, in fact, seems to have
paid more attention to picturesque detail
than to geography. The Medeba map.

comparatively broad stream which falls
into the Deead Sea. This body Of water
