The Oak or Terebinth of Abraham has been shown in two different sites. Arculf and many others (Jerome, ], Sozomen, Eucherius Eucherius of Lyon, Benjamin of Tudela, the Abbot Daniel... etc.) seem to point to the ruin of er Râmeh, near which is Beit el Khulil, or Abraham's House, with a fine spring well. This is still held by the Jews to be the Oak of Mamre. The Christians point to another site, Ballûtet Sebta, where is a fine specimen of Sindian (Quercus Pseudococcifera)." "Ballut" is the Arabic word for oak.
