		Near sunrise, Catena Abulfeda looks not like a chain of craters, but more like a thin, very bright line, running tangent from one wall of Abulfeda to the opposite wall of Almanon.
		I am fairly convinced after pondering Catena Abulfeda tonight that it must be an old fault, sort of like a more "mature" Rima Hyginus, whose catenish character was easily seen.

	A Short History of Palestine
		There are nowhere to be met with regular documents in respect to its history, states, and towns; the past seems to have been entirely forgotten; so that the whole country cared, so to say, only for the present, and took no cognizance of what had preceded or was to follow.
		It is true that some few Arabic historians have written something concerning Palestine, such as Abulfeda and Serif ibn Idrus; but their works have almost entirely disappeared, as was to be supposed would be the case under a government which had not and suffered not a free press.
		It was only with the greatest trouble that I could obtain here and there an historical document, and I extracted therefrom only what interested me, that is, what has reference to the Israelitish people, but not the general and to us indifferent accounts and narratives.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Sozusa
		In 1251 St. Louis re-erected its ramparts, and fourteen years later, in 1265, after a siege of forty days, it was stormed by the sultan Bibars; the inhabitants were killed or sold as slaves and the town completely razed.
		It never recovered, and in the fourteenth century the geographer Abulfeda said it contained no inhabitants ("Tabula Syriæ", 82).
