Abaphandi baqinisekile ukuba Thelela el-Hamam eJordani, apho iimpawu zobushushu obugqithisileyo kunye noluhlu lwentshabalalo luhambelana nebali lebhayibhile lokutshatyalaliswa kweSodom, yindawo yesi sixeko sakudala. Kudliwano-ndlebe lwakutsha nje olupapashwe ekupheleni kukaJuni, umembi wezinto zakudala wenza imeko enyanzelisayo malunga nokuchongwa kwendawo yakudala yebhayibhile yaseSodom. UStephen Collins, umphathi wesebe lezinto zakudala kwiYunivesithi iTrinity Southwest University, uthi yena neqela lakhe banesizathu sokukholelwa ukuba uTell el-Hammam eJordan uneempawu ezininzi ezikhomba eSodom, inikela ingxelo yeThe Daily Caller. Ngokukodwa, isiza siqhayisa ngezinto zakudala ezisasazekileyo zeBronze ezibonisa iimpawu zokufudumeza okukhulu. Oku kuhambelana nenkcazo kumabali eBhayibhile okutshatyalaliswa komlilo kweso sixeko.
UCollins ucacisa ngokufunyaniswayo okubangel’ umdla, esithi, “Emva kokuba sifumene iisentimitha ezimbalwa kumaleko weBronze Age, sidibana neqhekeza lodongwe—inxalenye yengqayi yokugcina ebonakala ngathi ibengezele. Omnye wabalingane bakaCollins uzoba ungqamaniso , ethelekisa izivubeko ezibonakalayo nezo zikwindawo yovavanyo lwenyukliya kaBathathu Emnye eNew Mexico, apho ibhombu yeathomu yokuqala yehlabathi yaqhushumba yaqhushumba. Iingxelo zangaphambili zesi siza zibonisa ukuba yatshatyalaliswa yintlekele kwiminyaka engama-4,000 eyadlulayo, mhlawumbi ngenxa yempembelelo yemeteorite. Nangona ubunyani besi siganeko bungekaqinisekiswa, ubungqina bufunyenwe, njengoko bucacisiwe kuphononongo. Umphandi uphawule ubukho boluhlu olutyebileyo lwamalahle, olubonisa ukutshisa okukhulu, kunye neqoqo lezinto ezinyibilikisiweyo. Ngokusekwe kwezi zinto zifunyenweyo, kucingelwa ukuba isiza siphantsi kwentshabalalo ekhawulezileyo neyonakalisayo.
Ukongeza koku, uCollins ubanga ukuba kukho ubuncinci iimbekiselo zejografi ezingama-25 kwiSibhalo ezinokunxulunyaniswa nokukhokelela kwindawo yaseSodom. Ngokomzekelo, walatha kwiGenesis 13:11 , ethetha ngoLote esinge ngasempuma. Kufanele kuphawulwe ukuba iTell el-Hamam ikwimpuma yeBheteli neAyi, nto leyo engqinelana nale ngxelo yeBhayibhile.
Ingcebiso eyenziwe nguCollins neqela lakhe inika ithuba elinomtsalane lokuba iTell el-Hammam ngenene yayiyindawo yesixeko sakudala saseSodom. Njengoko iBronze Age isala ibonisa iimpawu zobushushu obuqatha obusikhumbuza isiphelo somlilo weSodom, nonxulumano lwejografi olungqinelana neenkcazo zeBhayibhile, uphando olongezelelweyo kunye nohlalutyo lwenzululwazi ngokungathandabuzekiyo luya kusinika ukukhanya okungakumbi kolu qikelelo luphawulekayo.
Izazinzulu ezivela kwiYunivesithi yaseCalifornia (uSanta Barbara) zathi zikwazile ukucombulula enye yezona mfihlakalo zakudala kwimbali yoluntu-imfihlo yokutshatyalaliswa kwezixeko zaseSodom naseGomora, ezikhankanywe eBhayibhileni, Express.co.uk wabhala. ngoMatshi wonyaka ophelileyo.
Izibhalo zithi batshatyalaliswa emhlabeni ngumsindo kaThixo, ngenxa yokuba abemi bawo batshone kwinkohlakalo engazange ibonwe ngaphambili kwaye baphulukana nalo lonke uloyiko. Kodwa inyani yayiyiprosaic ngakumbi, utshilo umbhali okhokelayo kwisifundo uProf James Kennett. Ngokutsho kwakhe, iSodom neGomora zatshatyalaliswa yimvula yemvula, eyatshisa zonke izakhiwo yaza yabulala bonke abemi abangama-8,000 25. Mhlawumbi kwangeso siganeko sinye sabangela ukuba iindonga zeYeriko ziwe. Olu qikelelo lubonakala luqondakala kakhulu, xa kucingwa ukuba iYeriko yayimi malunga neekhilomitha ezingama-100 ukusuka kwindawo yokuqala “yomlilo”. Abaphengululi bachaza ukuba ngokwembono oko kwenzeka kwiSodom neGomora kusenokuba kwakufana nqwa nengqumbo kaThixo, njengoko kwakusenokwenzeka ukuba kwawa ibhola enkulu yomlilo esibhakabhakeni isiya ezixekweni. Kwalandela ugqabhuko-dubulo, olwatshabalalisa ummandla osemantla weNtlambo yaseYordan lwaza lwadiliza izakhiwo ezimalunga neehektare ezili-XNUMX. Ibhotwe elichazwe kwimithombo yamandulo nalo latshatyalaliswa, izindlu zedolophu kunye needolophana ezincinci zatshatyalaliswa zaluthuthu.
Abaphandi baseCalifornia baqinisekile ukuba akukho bantu basindayo kule ntlekele. Uqhushumbo olunamandla lwenzeka malunga ne-2.5 km ukusuka emhlabeni kwaye lwadala i-wave shock wave yasasazeka ngesantya esimalunga ne-800 km / h. Amathambo abantu afunyenwe ngabembi bezinto zakudala kwindawo yengozi acebisa ukuba aqhushumbisiwe okanye atshiswa. Amathambo amaninzi agqunywe ziintanda, amanye aqhekekile. UNjingalwazi uKennett uthi: “Sibone ubungqina bobushushu obungaphezu kwe-2,000 degrees Celsius. Izigqibo ezifanayo zenziwa liqela leengcaphephe zamazwe ngamazwe elafunda iziqwenga zeseramikhi nezinto zokwakha. “Yonke into inyibilikile yajika yaba yiglasi,” ushwankathela uKenneth.
Ubugcisa obenziwe ngabantu obunokubangela umonakalo onjalo ngokuqinisekileyo babungekho ngezo mini. Unjingalwazi uKennett wathelekisa esi siganeko singaqhelekanga nokuwa kwelitye lesibhakabhaka laseTunguska ngowe-1908, xa “iprojekti yasesibhakabhakeni” eneemegaton ezili-12 yatshabalalisa imithi ezizigidi ezingama-80 kummandla omalunga nezikwekhilomitha ezingama-900 kwimpuma yeSiberia. Isenokuba yimpembelelo eyatshabalalisa iidinosaurs, kodwa kwinqanaba elincinci. Izinyithi ezinyibilikisiweyo, eziquka intsimbi kunye nesilica, ziye zafunyanwa kwindawo ekucingelwa ukuba yayikhona iSodom neGomora, kwiisampulu zomhlaba kunye neediphozithi zekalika. Oku kufuneka kwakhona kuthathelwe ingqalelo njengobungqina bokuba kukho into engaqhelekanga eyenzekayo apho-impembelelo ekhawulezileyo yamaqondo obushushu aphezulu kakhulu.
ISodom neGomora xa zidibene zazimi kwindawo enkulu izihlandlo ezili-10 neziyi-5 kuneYerusalem neYeriko ngokulandelelana kwazo. Kuyo yonke le ndawo, abaphandi bafumana iisampulu zequartz eqhekekileyo, ngokutsho kukaProf. Kennett. “Ndicinga ukuba enye yezona zinto ziphambili zifunyenweyo yiquartz eqhekekileyo. Ezi ziinkozo zesanti ezineentanda ezakha kuphela phantsi koxinzelelo oluphezulu kakhulu - kuchaza inzululwazi. - I-quartz yenye yezona zimbiwa ezinzima. Kunzima kakhulu ukukrazuka,” kucacisa isazinzulu.
Ngoku abaphandi abavela kulo lonke ihlabathi bemba isixeko samandulo saseTal el-Haman. Abaninzi kubo bayaphikisana enoba le ndawo iyiyo kanye le ndawo iBhayibhile eyibiza ngokuba yiSodom. Abaphandi bakholelwa ukuba intlekele enkulu eyenzeka kulo mmandla yabangela ukuba kuthethwe amazwi aphefumlelweyo abhalwe kwincwadi yeGenesis. Mhlawumbi kwaloo ntlekele yavelisa intsomi yasebhayibhileni yokuwa kweendonga zaseYeriko.
