where did the parting of the red sea take place
Crossing the Red Sea No archaeological evidence has been found that confirms the crossing of the Red Sea ever took place. Zahi Hawass, an Egyptian archaeologist and formerly Egypt's Minister of State for Antiquities Affairs, said of the Exodus and Passover story, the Israelite's’ biblical flight from Egypt and the 40 years of wandering the desert in search of the Promised Land, "Really, it’s a myth... Sometimes as archaeologists we have to say that never happened because there is no historical evidence."[15]
Red Hook, Brooklyn From the 1920s on, a lot of poor and unemployed Norwegians, mostly former sailors, were living in the area in what they called Ã˜rkenen Sur ("The Bitter Desert") around places like Hamilton Avenue and Gospel Hill.[7] In 2015 NRK made a documentary about it in Norwegian.[8] There is also an old documentary film about this.[9]
