To the north the Taurus Mountains lie between the Levant and the Anatolian plateau. To the east and southeast the Syrian desert separates it from Mesopotamia and Arabia. To the southwest the Isthmus and Gulf of Suez set the boundary between the Levant and biblical Egypt (Mazar 1990:2-3; Moore 1978). The term Levant comes from the French term lever (to rise) and its Arabic equivalent is Mashriq (the country where the sun rises). The introduction of the word came with the French Mandate of Syria and Lebanon (which lasted from 1920 until the mid-1940s).
