Abstract
Summary: The salt of Jebel Usdum is not a product of the Pleistocene Dead Sea, nor of the lake which preceded it (in ? Pliocene time), the waters of which were fresh for a long period and deposited sediments, with a maximum thickness of 1,000 feet or more, which are younger than the salt.Keywords
