Fertile Crescent

identifies the land area shaped like a partial moon which extended from one point at the edge of Egypt through the Holy Land, expanding to include Syria and lands northeast of Palestine and finally bending down to the other end in the Mesopotamian Valley and the top of the Persian Gulf. Most of the civilizations of the Biblical world were located in this fertile area since other parts of the region could not always support human life. [DSM-OT, 04] The shorter desert route was avoided because of the lack of water and grazing.
