Description:— A Classic — Includes Active Table of Contents — Includes Religious Illustrations AT the farthest confines of Palestine, near where Phœnicia commences, there is situated a city formerly called Dan, after the tribe to which it belonged. Here some wanderers, cut off from the rest of their race at a distant period, settled down for some time, taking possession of the district around, built a town at its extreme border, and assumed to themselves the name of Phylarchs. This was the farthest point of Judæa on the side of Phœnicia. Herod the Great, in later times, built this city, and changed its name to that of Cæsarea Philippi; now, however, it is called Paneas, from a statue of Pan which was placed within its confines. In this town of Paneas rises one of the two fountains of the Jordan, (for it has two sources,) which is even now called “Dan,” after the ancient name of the place. The other fountain, which is called “Jor,” is about 160 stadia distant, and takes its rise out of the side of a hill. From each of these fountains flows a river, the one called Jorates and the other Danites. Descending from their hills, these rivers descend into a plain, where they join their waters, and, flowing in a single channel, form the river Jordan.
