Wow, time really flies, huh? It's been a while since I've been here! College is so busy. But I was wondering if anyone could help me on a research paper. I'm researching a recently rediscovered city in the middle east called Elba. It had been burried a long time ago, but not too long ago some guy was plowing in his field and hit a brick. They dug deeper and found the city. It's really cool ^^ My teacher told us a little about it, and I decided I wanted to research it. The great thing is, this city was in existance back in Abraham's time. When they unburied the city they found thier library, with trade agreements carved in stone with records from trading with... Sodom and Gomorrah! That's why I want to research it. My teacher said there's some sites online about it, but I'm having a hard time finding them from Google searches. It's a little frustrating. Not to mention there's a lot of different things with the name of Elba. Has anyone ever looked into this, or know where to go for more information? Or at least a better way to search for information about the ancient cities than Google searches?

Thanks in advance ^^; Any info will help.

Oooh... I think I found my problem XD My teacher's been teaching that it's called "Elba", when it's actually "Ebla." Crazy. But, it's a great subject to research if you're looking for connections between the old testament stories and modern-day places. Sorry about the confusion. You can delete this thread if you'd like, admins. Unless someone knows of any good sites to get information on this city.
