IDENTIFYING AIA AND THARAIS TO THE EAST OF THE DEAD SEA
On the edge of the surviving section of the Madaba Map, east of the Dead Sea, two villages are indicated, 'Aia and Tharais. The sites are not mentioned in the Bible, have no connection with early Christianity and do not appear in any other historical sources. We suggest that they were marked on...

520 | |a On the edge of the surviving section of the Madaba Map, east of the Dead Sea, two villages are indicated, 'Aia and Tharais. The sites are not mentioned in the Bible, have no connection with early Christianity and do not appear in any other historical sources. We suggest that they were marked on the Madaba map because they are located on the main Roman-Byzantine ascents that led up eastward from the Dead Sea to the Moabite plateau. 'Aia in the present-day village of 'Ai is at the top of the well-built known Roman road that ascends from the Zoar area to the Moabite plateau. We propose identifying Tharais with a site known as Medinat ar-Ras or it's near vicinity. This is based on the discovery of a well-built Roman road ascending from Zoar directly eastwards to a height of 1300 meters over an aerial distance of 8 km. Sur la bordure de ce qui reste de la Carte de Madaba, à l'est de la mer Morte, deux villages sont indiqués, 'Aia et Tharais. Les sites ne sont mentionnés ni dans la Bible ni dans les sources historiques, et n'ont pas de liens avec le christianisme naissant. Nous suggérons que leur présence sur la Carte de Madaba est due à leur localisation sur les principales voies romano-byzantines montant de la mer Morte vers le plateau moabite. 'Aia, aujourd'hui le village de 'Ai, est au sommet de la voie romaine qui monte de la région de Zoar au plateau. Nous proposons d'identifier Tharais avec Medinat ar-Ras, ou son environnement immédiat. Ceci se fonde sur la découverte d'une voie romaine fort bien construite montant de Zoar directement vers l'est, par une ascension de 1300 mètres, sur une distance de 8 kilomètres. | ||
