Excerpt from Palestine Exploration Fund, 1911 AN expedition to Moab, undertaken by Mr. F. G. Newton and myself in the autumn of last year on behalf of the Palestine Exploration Fund, had as one of its objects the investigation of any megalithic monuments that might come within convenient range of our itinerary. It was not indeed as if we were to make any special point of adding to the copious record of monuments of the dolmen class east of the Jordan made by Conder and others. Our purpose was rather to see whether it was not possible to bring these dolmens out of that state of splendid isolation in which the old-fashioned conception of them as altars had caused them hitherto to appear. It seemed to us specially important to find out, if possible, whether the dolmenic monuments might not turn out to have other and wider connections in the early civilization of Palestine than those of a ritual character suggested by Conder.
