Oxford Atlas Geography Tasks - Yr 2


Catholic Biblical School second-year students and St. Thomas Seminary CBS 200 students may have chosen to purchase the Oxford Bible Atlas to replace the out-of-print Hammond Atlas of Bible Lands that is referred to in student workbooks.
For the convenience of students who are using the Oxford Atlas, here are the following amendments to the Geography Tasks in the lessons indicated below by Unit and lesson number (e.g., I.1 refers to Unit one, lesson one).

Replace the words Hammond Atlas with the words Oxford Atlas in all lessons, and replace the given page numbers with the following page numbers from the Oxford Atlas:

You’ll need several maps for this geography task: For all identifications, use the map on page 158-159 except for the following: Phoenicia use pp. 150-151; for Elam use p. 129; and for Judea use p. 133. [Do not search for Lydda, which is just south of Joppa, because it is not on any Oxford map.]
