Extract

I have been fortunate enough to obtain from the eastern slope of Mount Hermon (Jebel esh Shech) a large lot of fossils, which not only determine the geological position of that part of the Lebanon, but also settle the question of the existence of Jurassic formations in Syria. Of course it has been often enough asserted that Jurassic rocks are found here, but the fact has not been considered settled beyond doubt.
