Answer 2

1. It is called Dead Sea but the truth is that it is not a sea. It is actually a salt water lake.
2. It is world’s deepest salt water lake to exist on this planet. It is 1,004 feet or 306 meters deep.
3. If we are to measure the depth of Dead Sea with respect to sea level of this planet, it becomes even deeper. Its shores and the water surface are located 1,401 feet or 427 meters below sea level, making it a water body on Earth’s lowest elevation of land.
4. According to Bible, King David took refuge near Dead Sea.
5. For Herod the Great, Dead Sea became the first health resort of the wall.
6. Today minerals and salts from Dead Sea are extensively used for making herbal sachets and cosmetics.
7. Because Dead Sea is actually a lake, it has to have a measurable length and breadth. At its widest point, the lake is 9 miles or 15 kilometers wide and the total length of the lake is 50 kilometers.
8. Many centuries ago, Dead Sea was known by the name ‘Stinky Sea’.
9. Dead Sea has a very unusual phenomenon. It spits out asphalt almost constantly. Asphalt used in ancient Egypt for mummification was imported from Dead Sea. Because of this unusual asphalt spitting phenomenon, the Greeks named the Dead Sea as Lake Asphaltites.
10. Water never flows out of Dead Sea because it is surrounded by land on three sides. The only open side is actually the route through which water enters Dead Sea from rivers and streams.
