Excerpt from A Handbook for Travellers in Syria and Palestine, Vol. 2: Including an Account of the Geography, History, Antiquities, and Inhabitants of These Countries, the Peninsula of Sinai, Edom, and the Syrian Desert; With Detailed Descriptions of Jerusalem, Petra, Damascus, and Palmyra The mountain region of Lebanon and Antilebanon cannot be said to belong to Paladins. Indeed that name is only strictly' a pl icable to the Land of the Philistines, - the plain of the coast, with w i the Greeks were first and chiefly acquainted. It was afterwards given to the interior also; but it has always been used very indefinitely. Neither Lebanon, Antilebanon, nor the intervening valley; was ever pomssed by the Israelites.
