The Jordanian city of Tal Al-Hamam is thought to be the location where the inhabitants of Lot resided thousands of years ago, but how did archaeologists come to this conclusion? The first discovery of Sodom’s effects was made by American archaeologist Stephen Collins, director of the Trenti South Western University Mission in New Mexico. Sodom is a city divided into two sections, Alawi and Qafli.
, With a main square, in addition to a site that appears to be special, because it was supported by special protections, all of which were facilities that required stones of bricks in millions, in addition to a large number of workers, but all aspects of life were suddenly stopped by the end of the middle of the Bronze era, which was either considered by the American scientist a mystery Nothing can be changed except for the fact that a catastrophe struck this area and completely destroyed all facets of life.
The results of research that lasted for nearly 15 years in the Jordanian town of Tal Al-Hamam, which is 12 kilometres to the northeast of the Dead Sea, where scientists discovered during the excavations in Tal Al-Hamam On the effects of a terrible catastrophe that occurred on the land of what is now known as Jordan 3600 years ago, were published in a lengthy and detailed article with illustrative fees in the scientific journal Nature in 2021.
The so-called “cosmic particles” that the scientists discovered in the artefacts are impurities of tiny platinum granules that dissolve at a temperature of 1800 degrees Celsius and asideium, which has a melting point of roughly 2500 degrees Celsius. Nothing of this kind can form during a volcanic eruption, an earthquake, or a fire started by military operations.
And the cause of what happened, according to scientists, is a mass the size of a “Tongoska” meteorite with a diameter of 50 to 60 metres that entered the Earth’s atmosphere at a speed of 61,000 km/h and exploded at a height of about 4 km. The explosion was 1,000 times stronger than the atomic bomb that was dropped on Hiroshima.
Therefore, the scholars proposed that this area of Jordan experienced a thunderbolt from the sky, and that those living there are the people of Lot who, according to the Holy Qur’an, were subject to God’s wrath. According to Surat Hood, “When our command came, we raised it, and we rained it with stones from the men of grownups.”
