This term should be a "multiple items" page, since a not less famous mountain called "Jebel Musa" is Mt. Sinai in the southern Sinai Peninsula, where it is traditionally believed that Moses received the ten commendments. http://www.bibleplaces.com/jebelmusa.htm
Other contender?
[edit]This article claims that Jebel Musa is one of the two contenders for the southern Pillar of Hercules, but fails even to mention what the other contender is (the other pillar is, of course, Gibraltar). This is begging the question. --Piledhigheranddeeper (talk) 15:49, 16 August 2012 (UTC)
- It does mention the Rock of Gibraltar as the northern pillar - Together with the Rock of Gibraltar to the north, it is generally identified as one of the Pillars of Hercules. --Gibmetal 77talk 2 me 16:14, 16 August 2012 (UTC)
- The article used to say what the other contender for the southern pillar is. Apparently someone "helpfully" deleted that information from the article. It is in the article history somewhere. --Orlady (talk) 19:04, 16 August 2012 (UTC)
