Excerpt from Ancient Jerusalem, Vol. 1 Salem can be supposed to have been founded and it is to these inspired records that we owe all our knowledge concerning the foundation of cities still more ancient, and, indeed, the most ancient in the worldf - such as Nineveh, Rehoboth, Calneh, Erech, and Babylon. Even with Palestine, the country in which Jerusalem is found, the Scriptures make us acquainted, and name many of its towns, at a time close upon the most remote of the dates which have been given to the foundation of that city. The question therefore arises, Whether the town may not, in these ancient accounts, be mentioned by some other name than that which it in ensuing ages acquired or whether, if it then existed at all, it was not of too little importance, or too much out of the way of the patriarchs, to obtain particular notice.
